These help develop social skills, communication, team work and promote health and well-being through staying physically active. The group was established in 2021, and is run by St Lukes and St Chad’s churches. They teach about the Christian faith and explore morals and values with young people, but there is no faith requirement to attend. Currently they have between 10 and 15 young people attending each week. It is run on a 'pay what you can' basis so that there are no financial barriers to attending. The donations fund refreshments and art and craft items, but they approached us for a grant for a range of small items of sports equipment that would allow them to offer a wider range of sports activities and games than they were currently able to offer. The suggestions came from the young people themselves and included the things they would like to be able to make use of such as a portable basketball hoop, collapsible indoor football goals and an indoor badminton set amongst others.
