Legends Youth Groups - The Young Lives Foundation

At our Legends youth groups, we create safe, inclusive, and fun spaces where young people can be themselves, build confidence, and make lasting friendships. We’re passionate about helping young people discover their potential while enjoying the benefits of friendship, fun, and the outdoors.

Who is it for?

Our weekly Junior and Senior groups (ages 8–17) are designed for young people who may be experiencing low self-esteem, social anxiety, mild mental health challenges, isolation, or disadvantage.

What we offer:

A welcoming inclusive community where everyone belongs

Exciting new experiences and plenty of free play

Nature-based activities all year round to boost wellbeing

Opportunities to develop skills, confidence, and resilience

Sense of belonging and engagement with the local community

Holiday trips and activities – getting out and about across the county

Ella, young person

“I have anxiety and depression but recently started taking part in groups at the hub, which has given me the opportunity to boost my confidence and meet other people.”

We are growing! Every week more young people need somewhere safe to belong and we urgently need more volunteers to help run our activity sessions. Could you give the gift of time, be a positive role model and make an impact by simply being there and having fun!?
