New Youth Centre in Thorne

Young people in Thorne now have somewhere to go, something to do and someone to talk to, thanks to special funding for a brand new youth centre which was launched on Monday 3 November to coincide with national Youth Work Week.

The newly refurbished youth centre on Bridge Street offers young people aged 13 - 19 the opportunity to engage in a wide range of positive activities including training opportunities, active involvement, access to an Information, Advice and Guidance worker, an extended schools programme throughout the school holiday period and outings and residential trips.

The centre also boasts a variety of modern facilities including a coffee bar area, computer suite, training and activity room, DJ area with plasma screen and pool and tennis tables with a social space which was funded by a successful Youth Opportunity Fund bid.

The centre is open to young people with a Youth Club held every Thursday 5.30 - 9.30pm and Friday from 7 - 9.30pm with a Youth Club & Young Peoples Sexual Health Clinic held every Monday from 6 - 9pm.
