Summer Term Programmes
Our summer term programmes have arrived! See what’s on at our hubs for young people aged 10 – 19 (25 with SEND), or our adventure playgrounds for 6-15 year olds (18 with SEND) starting from Monday 13 April.
We’ve planned exciting and varied programmes of activities, events and opportunities, which include arts and crafts, multi-sports and games sessions.
Forest Road Youth Hub – 29 Forest Road, Dalston, E8 3BY

The Edge Youth Hub – 7 Woodberry Grove, Woodberry Down, N4 1SN
020 8356 1063
- The Edge will be temporarily closed from Monday 20 April until Wednesday 29 April, as we are undergoing building works to create a new and improved space at the hub. There are alternative activities for young people while these works take place. Read more about that here.
- We’ll have our full programmes ready soon, so you can see what’s coming up from Thursday 30 April!
Young Carers – Forest Road Youth Hub, E8 3BY & The Edge Youth Hub, N4 1SN
Many young people don’t see themselves as young carers. However, if you are looking after someone with a disability, long-term physical illness, mental health condition, or drug and alcohol problems, then we can help.
Visit one of our young carer groups:
- Forest Road Youth Hub, E8 3BY:
- Wednesdays from 4-6pm – Homework space
- Wednesdays from 6-8pm – Cooking activities, plus more.
- The Edge Youth Hub, N4 1SN:
- Tuesdays from 3.10-5.30pm – Activities, games, and more!
