Westfield Ward Committee has dedicated a pot of funding from their 2016 to 2017 ward budget towards provision of activities for young people on Chapelfields Estate.
Part of this funding has been used to commission Urbie bus sessions at St Aiden’s Church.
The first session is on Friday 30 June 2017 between 7pm and 9pm. Sessions will continue every Friday for the next 4 weeks, after which the provision will be reviewed.
Urbie is a fun place for young people to engage in craft activities, watch films, play board games, take part in sports activities and somewhere to go and talk.
Youth workers will be encouraging young people in the area to come along.
This is the first time the bus will be used by The Rock of York after acquiring it via asset transfer from the City of York Council.
