Our aims for CLUB4US are as follows:

  • To support children and young people in gaining confidence and self-esteem in order to deal with issues that affect them
  • To offer opportunities for children and young people to build a social network, assisting them to overcome isolation through building contacts with other minority ethnic children and young people
  • To encourage children and young people to integrate with all sections of the community, feeling safer in the community that they live
  • To offer opportunities for children and young people to gain new skills in a range of areas widening their interest and options to make positive changes in their lives that assist them to plan for the future

We are always looking for new members – Come and give it a try.
