Springboard

Warrington Youth Zone have developed a model of working that takes into consideration any barriers that may prevent young people from joining in with activities and working to remove those barriers wherever possible.

We believe this approach should be inclusive of all abilities yet specific enough to cater for each individual.

Springboard members aged 7-19 (up to 25) can access a wide range of amazing activities at the Youth Zone for just 50p per session!

Springboard Sessions
Sunday (no booking required): – 11am – 3pm
Monday (bookings only): – 3:30pm – 9pm
Tuesday (Ages 7-12 years old & bookings only): – 3:30pm – 8pm

Springboard Activities 

• Sensory play • Arts & crafts • Roller skating • Music • Baking • Sports • Gym • Martial arts
• Indoor rock climbing • Quiet play • Multimedia • Dance & drama & much more!

We also run a Springboard Family Day on the second Sunday of every month, which allows Springboard members and their families to join in on the fun at the Youth Zone!*

*Under 12s must be accompanied by an adult

Specialist Support

If young people require additional support to access our opportunities, a discussion will take place as to how this can be arranged. We recently launched a new specialist support service offering one-to-one and personal care to young people at the Youth Zone.

Our staff are trained to provide:

• Personal care (including hoisting) • Feeding support (including MIC-KEY feeding tubes)
• Medication administering • Epilepsy first aid • Care needs
