Youth Activities
The youth activities for the disadvantage and disabled children of Chiswick are run by the Trust’s brilliant Youth Leader Denny Anthony.
The youth activities are held during term time at afternoon and evening sessions between Mondays and Thursdays. There are extra activities at half term and holidays with special off site residential breaks for those children who would not be able to get away during the summer holidays.
