We have a weekly youth club that runs from our temporary space, The Pippin. We work from this space to build a programme of regular activity, including creative workshops and socials.
Jamal and Zahra lead the youth club and has a growing group of committed 5-14 y/o’s. Youth Club is an opportunity to learn an array of life skills via team building, sport and health-focused activities. It is also a space for our young members to develop skills in creative methods to represent themselves, our area and its narrative.
Past projects have seen us collaborate with graphic designers, animators, illustrators, artists, ceramicists, printmakers and performance artists. Our youth club takes place weekly after school, and our sports session takes place every weekend.
Youth Club aims to work with its young members to create a counter-narrative for the neighbourhood. Check out the music video created by Youth Club in collaboration with Jamal Ledoux (who alongside Zahra Hanif, runs the weekly sports session for young members).
Young members have been able to build a portfolio of skills through their commitment to Youth Club, many of which have achieved Discover Arts Awards through this activity. And in 2023, two members achieved a Bronze Arts Award.
