Empowering young people through education, recreation and wellbeing

Since our humble beginnings way back in 1898, we’ve been helping and supporting children and young people in Lancashire every way we can. We give them safe spaces to talk, socialise, make friends and acquire new skills in environments free from judgement or discrimination.
