Outdoor

Youth Group

Outdoor Skills & Creativity Programme supporting fire skills, outdoor cooking, crafts, foraging and play

(Ages 11–16)

Join us on Tuesdays, 4 - 6pm, for a rolling outdoor programme where young people can explore bushcraft, forest school activities, and creative making in a safe, supportive environment.

This project offers young people a supported space to develop practical skills, confidence, and connection with others through creative outdoor experiences.

FREE To attend thanks to The National Lottery Community Fund.

First time visiting us? No need to book/sign up - just turn up!

What We’ll Do

From October we’ll be based at Pluto Q’s Community Reading Room at 42-44 Albert Road, still close to Queen's Park, but a little more comfortable for the colder nights.

We’ll meet at the same time, 4-6pm and focus our time on exploring seasonal crafting with natural materials, folklore and traditions rooted in the natural world, starting with Samhain (Halloween) and leading up to the Winter Solstice. There will also be plenty of games, snacks, tea and chatting as usual :) 

The youth group are invited to take part in a Solstice Celebration on 21st December (southside location tbc). We’ll be working with the young people over the coming weeks to find out how they want to be involved and in what format.
