Kirstie Hurst-Knight, Shropshire Council’s Cabinet member for children and education, said: “These spaces are a fantastic opportunity for young people to join in a host of activities and an opportunity to socialise and relax with friends.”
The jam-packed schedule includes thrilling martial arts sessions, creative arts and crafts, pizza-making adventures, music exploration, and engaging sports activities like 'Embrace' and photography.
To ensure a memorable experience for all children, free food and drinks will be provided.
While the sessions welcome children and young people aged 11 to 18, those aged 11-12 must present a signed consent form from a parent or guardian.
