Gannow Youth Cafe

The Gannow Holiday Club ran for four years from 2016-2019 in the majority of the school holidays across the year, tackling hunger and supporting young people with informal learning through games, interactive workshops and 1:1 support.

This project was funded by Gannow Big Local, and provided a vital place to go for hundreds of children over the years. We were supported by Burnley Youth Theatre, NCS, Children's Society and the Police to deliver activities covering topics such as: ASB, road safety, care for our communities, bullying, healthy eating, team building, resilience, confidence and self esteem and being positive citizens.

As well as providing enrichment activities and healthy, filling meals, we were also able to treat the children to sports days and trips out to local farms and outdoor activities.
