The Grassmoor and Hasland Youth & children Support Group's focus is on activities for different age groups of young people, including sports, cultural, educational or recreational sessions and developing links with young people and their parents and carers through their schools, groups and community events.

 

Summer Activities

The group has worked hard engaging with partners and activity providers to run a series of activities in the summer holidays at both Eastwood Park and Barnes Park.  This has helped develop links with young people and their parents and carers as well as providing fun things for children and young people to do in the school holidays. The Summer Activities Programme 2021 is going ahead and will be a 6 week holiday programme offering Samba Sports activities; Mondays and Wednesdays, 11am - 3pm Eastwood Park, Hasland. Tuesdays and Thursdays, 11am - 3pm Barnes Park, Grassmoor. Wanted volunteers on hand to enable us to make sure everything runs smoothly on the day.  If you can spare some time in the summer holidays, whether for one session or more, please get in touch with one of our support workers as soon as possible by email: This email address is being protected from spambots.

'Make at Home Meals' bags for youngsters were provided by Fare Share/Rural Action Derbyshire and administered by GHBL volunteers during the summer and half-term holidays and we hope these will continue so watch out for information as each holiday approaches. During May 21 half term our volunteers distributed 4 large shopping bags of food to each of 59 local families. A huge thank you goes out to our volunteers and Grassmoor Community Pavilion.
