Outdoor experience and joy for young people aged 16-25

The project is run by The Hammer Youth Centre and participants themselves take part in shaping the programme with ideas for outdoor activities, exercise and new places. An introductory meeting will be held in Hamran on Monday, 3rd April at 8 p.m.
