Summer term updates

13-19 year olds can now visit our hubs anytime, Monday to Friday!
This is our first term at Young Hackney, where young people aged 13-19 can visit our youth hubs anytime from 3.30-8.30pm!*
We listened to your feedback, and now you can come straight after school to our youth hubs during term time.
If you’re 10-13 years old, you can still come along to our hubs for open access and structured activities from 3.30-5.30pm.
*We’ll be briefly closed for a short break at 5.30-6.00pm
