Hangs
On Tuesday – Friday, 3.30-5.30pm, we run free afternoon hangs for young people. We provide a chilled out, safe environment with Xbox, food and Wi-Fi, and our youth workers are trained to provide additional care if needed.

On Thursdays we have a group who host a radio show over at Access Radio. Enquire below for deets.
