Contact: Wendy Barker  tel 01904 701786, evenings except Thursday

Open every Thursday evening, 7.30 pm to 10 pm

Molys belongs to the youth in our community; they decide what they want to do, what equipment they need, and how to deal with issues such as bullying, anti-social behaviour, etc. The leaders provide the equipment and hopefully plenty of time for listening, laughing, and a little common sense when needed.

Admission is free and activities include pool, table football, volleyball, netball, basketball, computer games, computers for study and more.

If anyone can spare two hours a week to help the leaders they would be very glad to hear from you. Ring Wendy on the number above.
