| Purpose of Organisation | A Place To Be (APTB) youth club exists to provide support and amenity activities for young people in the Haslemere area, who would otherwise have no alternative. We aim to provide the following services on a community-led and not-for-profit basis: • A weekly [term-time] youth club for young people 11 to 14 years of age. • A safe space to meet friends outside of school hours. • Activities that aim to improve young people’s social and life skills, co-ordination, creativity and teamwork. • Opportunities to try new activities, develop skills and pursue interests (crafts, music, sports). • Mindfulness and Mental Health support for young people with extra needs. • A positive and constructive option for young people on a Friday evening. • An opportunity for young people to disconnect from their busy lives and have a place to relax, be themselves and discuss whatever is on their mind. The guiding philosophy of our organisation is to cultivate the holistic growth of young people by offering activities and support that nurture their physical, emotional, and mental well-being. It underscores the significance of empowerment, inclusivity, skill development, creativity, collaboration, and resilience. We value creating a secure and inclusive environment where young individuals can explore their potential, express themselves, and acquire the essential tools and self-awareness to make wholesome decisions and choices in their lives. Registered Charity No. 1111600 Company Registration No. 5442921 We are an independently run youth group reliant on a small team of volunteer youth workers, some paid staff and a volunteer management committee. Our service offer is also a commitment to support the young people of Haslemere with an informal drop-in service each Friday during term-time, with a small entrance fee of £2.50. This minimal fee means parents are not put under undue financial pressure to cover what would otherwise be a costly term-time activity fee, this also allows the young people to come and go as they wish from week-to-week. We aim to support as many young people as we can between the ages of 11-14 and routinely have 120 young people on our books (>50 take part each week). One third of our young people come from low-income families, or who are struggling with mental health or learning difficulties. We are a safe space for groups to meet constructively in a supervised environment. Activities we provide have included: music workshops, varied sports, fitness, arts & crafts, drama workshops, local walks and trips (many of which some of our disadvantaged young people would not otherwise have the opportunity to take part in). |
