Youth Club

Buckland Newton Youth Club is a new

initiative run voluntarily by villagers

for the young people of the village. It

aims to provide a safe and stimulating

environment for 11-16 year olds to

meet, relax and have the opportunity to

join in a variety of structured activities

including music sessions, film nights,

bake-offs and sport events. The club

will also endeavour to foster strong

links with all age groups within the

village through organising special

events for the community.

Buckland Newton Youth Club meets on a Tuesday evening between 18.30 and 20.00 in Buckland Newton Village Hall, during term time. If you have or are a young person who would like to join Buckland Newton Youth Club, you must be in Yrs 6 - Yr 12 from Buckland Newton and the surrounding parishes, and is run by local volunteers . Some additional help to run the Buckland Newton Youth Club is needed. Could you help?

Spring Programme Following its music project with BSharp in October, Buckland Newton Youth Club now has a video (well two actually) and a theme tune! You can find them both here on the Buckland Newton Community website. Click here for Video 1 and here for Video 2 and see what they have done. With a growing membership adult help is always greatly appreciated, and one of our regular volunteers is about to commence Dorset Council's free youth work training. This is a great example of how volunteering can provide the opportunity to learn new skills and provide free accredited training, that can lead to paid employment in the future. Regular volunteers will be required to have a DBS check.
