Youth & Support Groups

40 Degreez provides various sessions throughout the week, ranging across the board. Young people are at the fore of our clubs and their needs matter and are catered for. Our highly experienced youth team offer the support and mentoring working with the families, in a safe environment.

Gardening Project

Our garden project runs alongside Nerd Club, giving young people a relaxed space to develop gardening skills and grow flowers and vegetables.

Outreach and detached work allows trained youth workers to engage young people in their own communities, rather than expecting them to come to us.

Wednesday Health Hub

New for this year..

Funded by the National Lottery, we have added an extra session of Health Hub mirroring our Friday session but with a smaller group and quieter surroundings. Focusing on life skills, cooking and eating together as a group.

"I want to thank 40 Degreez for helping Bobby become Bobby! Bobby has gone from a child who just wanted to be in his room playing computer games to someone who has found his tribe at 40 Degreez. He has changed from someone who avoided human interaction to seeking out friends he has met at 40 Degreez, making new friends and bringing them along to 40 Degreez. He has gone from a lad of very few words to one who is so animated when telling me about the D&D campaign at ‘Nerd Club’. 40 Degreez has really helped Bobby to evolve into the outgoing lad I knew he could be with some gentle encouragement."
