Warrington Youth Zone have recently launched a brand-new independent travel programme, funded by the National Lottery Community Fund.
Active Adventurers aims to support young people aged between 14-18 with additional needs/pathway for a diagnosis, for whom the use of public transport and travelling independently is a barrier to their everyday life.
We run separate six to seven-week cohorts, which include both interactive sessions within the Youth Zone, in addition to hands-on travel sessions which allow young people to experience both bus and train travel.
Our current group of adventurers have two more sessions, and have already planned and recently enjoyed travelling to locations in Warrington (by bus) and Chester (by train).
The next cohort will commence on Monday 11 November, with demand for places in incredibly short supply.
