PLEASE READ ON TO LEARN ABOUT THE NEWS ON THE EVER-DEVELOPING AND EXPANDING YOUTH CLUB IN TAIRGWAITH …
We are now going to be opening on Wednesday and Thursday Evenings and one Saturday morning per month for young people aged 11-18.
Wednesday opening times 6.30-9pm, Thursday opening times 5.30-8pm, and Saturday dates and times to be advised (all sessions have a small submission fee of 50p). The youth club is ever expanding and we are always looking for ways to help improve the service for the members and their families.
The focus on Thursday evenings will be around getting active, eating well and improving wellbeing. It is vital that young people learn from a young age the importance of these three things but we plan to do it in a fun and inventive way to benefit the young people and, of course, this also gives young people an opportunity to meet with friends and socialise.
The structure of a Thursday evening will be alternate weeks, we will at the centre, Canolfan Maerdy, having sessions run by our newly appointed youth worker nutritionist. These sessions will be focused on improving eating habits and learning how this helps the body and mind. The following week will be held in various sports leisure centres and the young people will have sessions planned by a sports coach; the sessions will be fun and active.
For this term, we are planning to go to Cwmtawe Leisure Centre with the young people on alternate Thursdays (leaving Canolfan Maerdy at 5.30pm and returning by 8pm).
