We offer programmes for young people across the area. Step Up supports those who need extra help moving from primary to secondary school. Our Step Up mentor group gives young people the chance to develop leadership skills while supporting the next group. Both programmes build confidence, teamwork and community connections.
Moving On offers supportive, creative sessions for young people who are not currently in education, employment or training (NEET). They can socialise, take part in projects, work towards a qualification and get support with their next steps.

Bringing personal and social development to the heart of our community. Ashton Youth Club is an inclusive youth and community provision run by Lindley Educational Trust, a long-established charity with a strong track record of delivering outdoor adventure and personal development opportunities.

At the heart of Ashton Youth Club is a simple aim: to break down barriers, bring people together and help young people and families thrive through positive experiences in the outdoors. We provide a safe, welcoming space where young people can build friendships, develop confidence and discover new interests. Alongside our regular youth clubs and sports sessions, we offer a wide range of activities and opportunities designed to support personal growth, teamwork and long-term skills development.
