Drop In Information
What is the Leaving Care Drop In?
The “drop in” is a fun place to hang out, play pool or watch the latest videos.
It’s somewhere where you can meet other young people who have left care (and so might have some valuable advice), are in the process of leaving care or are going to be leaving soon. The idea is to have fun but also to learn new skills, socialise and get involved in positive activities that you might not normally try!
Other activities that the young people like doing at the drop –in are trips-out for a game of Football or Rounders, going to the Bowling Alley, Quasar Lazar or Rock Climbing, and don’t forget the Cookery Classes and Barbeques - where you can learn to cook like Jamie Oliver.
The activities at the Drop-In change every 8 weeks, so if you want do anything else at the drop-in, like go carting, paint balling or bike riding just let me (Sean Green) know.
If you like any of the stuff we do at the Drop-In, then why not pop along, it is at the Leaving Care Service at Edhill Avenue and it is on every Thursday from 4.00pm-6.00pm.
If you are unsure how to get there look under, Where is the Leaving Care Service? or ring 0191 427 2830 and ask a member of staff how to get there.
