Swale Youth - A Collection of Organisations for the Youth of Swale.

"We care about children and young people living in the Borough of Swale. That’s why a number of organizations helping children and young people in Swale have come together to set up Swale Youth. Led by the Housing Association, Optivo, and managed day to day by Vibe Community Ltd (The Brogdale CIC Group) we are a partnership of organisations along with Sheppey Matters and other associates. Working together we can help more young people to have fun and achieve a better quality of life. We’ve secured a grant from Kent County Council to deliver a youth service until March 2022".

BEMIX Sittingbourne Groups

Eco Shed - We learn how to do woodwork. Our group always uses reclaimed wood. Reclaimed means using the wood again to stop it being wasted. We use tools to measure, cut, carve and put together the wood. Lots of our objects are homes for wildlife, furniture and artwork. We sell what we have made. People ask us to build things for them. We decide on a fair price and make what they have asked for. We use the money we make to support the work of the Eco Shed. We help each other.

Media - We choose what we want to learn about media. We can make films and be in them. We design and make websites. We use computers to design art. We use computers to edit photographs. We can learn to use computers for lots of different things. We work on creative writing and storytelling. Sometimes we work with the Music Group to make and record songs.

Risky Business; Drama and Performing Arts - We decide what we want to make a performance about together. It is a very friendly group. We think about what we want to do as a team. Then we plan how to achieve our goals together. We use breathing and music to relax. We talk about our ideas and our experiences. We talk about how they make us feel. We can record ourselves for voice-overs. Everybody gets to do the things they like best about drama. We support each other and get more confident together.
