Bede Youth is a friendly, exciting programme for local young people aged 8 to 19. It’s packed with year-round, low-cost activities that are lively, thought-provoking and challenging. We thrive on adventure – especially on trips outside London during school holidays. Plus there’s always a buzz at our music studio and in our clubs. As one of our members says: “I like Bede because it’s fun”. Why not drop by and find out what’s happening?

Each month we follow a four-week programme:

1st Week – Plan activities for the month including issues you want to discuss, places you want to visit and skills you want to learn.
2nd Week – Learn a Skill, based on your earlier choices: e.g. cooking, ice skating, writing job application letters.
3rd Week – Discuss the big issues affecting you and your friends - sometimes with the aid of experts like lawyers, careers advisers, or health workers.
4th Week – Film night - watch and then discuss the film you've chosen.
