County leisure service launches youth work summer camp

As part of its summer programme, Denbighshire Youth Service will be delivering its first ever Youth Work Summer Camp.

Spread over three nights, young people from across the county will be able to access this free of charge, taking part in a variety of activities delivered by qualified youth work team and partner agencies.

* August 21 - One night for Junior members (School Yr 7 & 8)

August 22-24 - Two nights for Senior members (School Yr 9 and above)

Activities will include:  Outdoor cooking, sports, bush craft, orienteering, VR sessions, team building challenges, campfire music, wellbeing workshops, morning yoga, outdoor cinema

Places are limited and booking is essential – for more information and consent forms, email youth.service@denbighshire.gov.uk.

In addition to Summer Camp, the service has organized a series of ‘Pop Up’ Youth Clubs across the county for new and existing members aged 11-17. 

These events are all free to attend but booking is recommended as places are limited and will be allocated on a first come, first served basis.

As well as taking part in the main ‘themed’ activity, young people can take advantage of all the other recourses and activities at each centre, and meet their local youth work team. 

Light refreshments will be available at each Pop Up free of charge. Young people are asked to make their own travel arrangements to and from each event.
