A LOCAL housing provider has joined forces with Guiding Young Minds, bringing a new mobile youth club which offers free activities to young people in Nuneaton.
The youth bus has been equipped with game consoles, sport equipment, art and craft and a music system.
It offers youngsters a place to socialise and trained youth workers on the bus can offer support and mentoring on any issues.
GYM is a charity which specialises in working with young people to navigate personal challenges and make positive life choices.
Emily Brunsdon, Orbit’s local place area lead for Nuneaton said: “We know from speaking to our customers in the area that they’d like to see more activities for young people, so we’re really excited to be working with GYM to bring this provision right to people’s doorsteps.
“We hope that this initiative not only benefits the young people in the area but also the wider community who can be assured that there is an accessible, safe space where young people can engage in positive activities.”
The bus will be based on Poachers Close in Nuneaton every Friday from 4pm-7pm for at least six months which will be extended if successful.
