Frequently asked questions
Is the programme only for girls?
No, this programme is for all young people aged 10–14. We welcome all young people of all gender identities.
Does my child need to come to all sessions?
Yes, we highly encourage attending all or most of the 14 sessions, to build trust and good relationships and achieve the best outcomes. We understand family, school occasions or illness are normal — please just let us know.
My child is anxious — can I accompany them on the programme?
We understand new places can cause anxiety, especially for young people with additional needs. We welcome one parent to accompany their child to the first session if needed — mention your child's needs on the sign-up form and we'll arrange a phone call.
Is there a cost?
No, the programme is fully funded and free. We do need your commitment to attend most of the 14 sessions, so we can offer a valuable spot to someone else if not — thanks for your collaboration.
This space is designed for all young people 10–14. Many have reported that our small group sizes and inclusive approach have benefitted them. Please fill out the form when registering your child to let us know about their specific needs.
