Sandwell Youth Service – Summer Parks Programme at Lion Farm

Our program is designed to empower young people with essential life skills, build resilience, boost confidence, and broaden their horizons through enriching activities. We aim to support cost of living initiatives while enhancing the health and well-being of participants.

The specific activities in our program were thoughtfully chosen based on feedback from session participants, recorded data, and evaluation forms. Our goal is to provide opportunities for learning valuable life skills in a fun and engaging way, helping young people gain the knowledge and confidence to apply these skills throughout their lives and within their families.

Join us for a summer filled with learning, fun, and the chance to build skills that will last a lifetime!

Young people attending our sessions will immerse themselves in structured, positive activities, expertly delivered and supported by trained professional youth workers from our dedicated Youth Service. They’ll develop valuable skills in respect, confidence, social interaction, health, safety, and community cohesion, while also learning how to overcome isolation. Our youth workers provide crucial support to help young people address issues such as substance misuse, vaping, positive relationships, community tensions, online safety, county lines, school attendance, and building resilience. Each session also includes a nutritious meal, ensuring that participants are well-fed.

The Youth Services’ SEND provision will promote the parks programme, we have youth workers who are trained around SEND needs will be available to advise the park’s staff to ensure the programme is fully accessible and engaging to all.
