Welcome to Tilehurst Junior Club
Update about our return
Now that restrictions are easing we want to provide you with an update on the youth club. Having been closed for the past 18 months, the longest time in the youth club’s 43 year history, we do plan to reopen and are currently working through plans to do so safely. At the moment we hope to reopen in September in line with the schools going back and will confirm nearer the time. If you aren’t aware of our youth club, it runs on Friday night from 7-9pm in Tilehurst Youth and Community centre and is for primary school children over the age of 8. We will be looking for more volunteers when we reopen so if you are interested please drop us a message. We really look forward to welcoming the children back soon!
About us
We run a youth club for children aged 8 to 12 years and meet on Friday evening’s from 7pm – 9.30pm at the Tilehurst Youth and Community Centre which is situated above the Co-op at the Tilehurst Triangle. The club which is an independent non-profit making organisation is largely run and staffed by volunteers. The club is managed by an elected group of parents, volunteers and people living in the Tilehurst Community.
We offer a safe and secure environment for young people to enjoy themselves, make new friends and develop their social skills. We offer a wide range of activities, including games, indoor sports, arts and crafts, cooking, karaoke and competitions on club nights.
Children from all backgrounds are most welcome and we work hard to prevent any bullying or discrimination. We do not allow children to leave the club until the end of the evening session unless collected by a parent. At the end of the evening parents are encouraged to come up into the youth club to collect their children and to get to know members of the staff team.
ALL staff, volunteers and management committee members are vetted by the Criminal Records Bureau to ensure the safety of the children attending the club.
Our aim is to provide an exceptional youth club for young people in Tilehurst. If you have suggestions on how we can improve lease let us know.
If you have any questions about the club please contact Dennis, the Youth Club Co-ordinator by email tilehurstjuniorclub@yahoo.co.uk
