Last week was the second week of Young Bristol's Summer Holiday Provision. We saw delivery from 5 of Young Bristol’s Community Youth Clubs and Outdoor Activity Centre, working with new and existing young people, providing them with exciting and enriching opportunities, access to a free hot meal and the opportunity to build new friendships.

​​

The second week of our Summer Holiday Provision saw:

  • 615 contacts with young people across our Holiday Clubs and Open Access provision
  • 24 sessions across the city
  • 7 communities supported through our Community Youth Clubs and Youth Club on Wheels.

Key highlights of the week:

At BS14 Youth Club, young people enjoyed a 'Circular Food', delivered by 50 Ways To Cook! During the workshop, young people learnt about upcycling food to produce less food waste, explored the soil beneath their feet and made nutrient rich soil to plant some seeds for them to look after in the well-being garden. Thank you 50 Ways To Cook or delivering such an amazing workshop!

Throughout the week, we saw Hartcliffe Club for Young People team up with Merchants Academy to deliver a fun-filled week of their 'playscheme'. The sessions through the week saw young people enjoy a number of different activities, including 'Bingo Lingo', a sports day and a barbecue, bringing together young people from Hartcliffe Club for Young People and their local secondary school!

We saw young people enjoy a number of delicious, healthy meals, thanks to the Holiday Activity Fund! Young people tucked into hot meals each evening, including a barbecue, chicken wings and fajitas!

​​

Young Bristol would like to thank our staff team, partner organisations, and funders for helping make last week part of the summer of a lifetime. We would also like to thank the Your Holiday Hub Bristol Programme, supported by Bristol City Council and The Department for Education, for supporting our Holiday Clubs at our city-wide Community Youth Club venues.
