Pennant Youth Club is a free provision for young people aged 11 to 18 years
Drink and snacks are provided.
The youth club is a safe space for young people to develop their social skills. We have a variety of games and activities available. We also offer a selection of workshops including a monthly cooking session. We have guest speakers including CAVO who are coming to talk to the young people about getting involved in the wider community as young volunteers. We are also in talks to arrange some basic emergency first aid training for the young people including guidance on how to use a defibrillator.
There is a lot going on and we are so grateful for the support of the local community. If you have a skill or interest, you would like to share with the young people please let us know.

Lending a Hand - Would you have some spare to help out?
Would you have any time on a Friday evening to join the team in assisting at the Youth Club.
We are looking to identify people who could join a roster of volunteers, so that it won’t be an every week commitment. Sessions are 6.00pm to 8.00pm.
If you wish to help it will be necessary, for anyone volunteering, to undergo a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. These checks are carried out through Cymuned Pennant. Please contact Gill Evans for any further information.

PENNANT YOUTH CLUB FUNDRAISER
On Saturday 29th July Pennant Youth Club held their Tea, Coffee, Cake & Classic Cars fundraiser at Pennant Community Centre. This involved many hours, spent by club members, volunteers and supporters, in baking a whole range of cakes for the event. The Club volunteers assisted during the day, with the club members serving drinks and cakes to tables.
A display of Classic vehicles were exhibited in the yard, a 1968 Triumph TR5, Mini Cooper S, 1964 E Type Jaguar, 1968 Triumph Bonneville motor bike and a 1926 International 10/20 Tractor. The Tractor had a long history in Ceredigion and was purchased locally in 1940. All of these vehicles can be seen on Saturday 12th August at the Cardi Cranks Vintage Club, Annual Vintage Show, at Cifforch Farm, Cardigan Road, Aberaeron, SA46 0ET. Vehicles kindly provided by Huw Evans, Pennant; Dafydd Edwards, Bethania; and Curig Evans; Aberaeron.
A ticket for the event covered the cost of teas and coffees along with two cakes of your choice and a raffle ticket. Further raffle tickets were able to be purchased during the day for the many prizes that had been donated. The first prize was a trip in the 1964 E Type Jaguar, which was won by one of the Youth Club Members.
Gill Evans, who leads the Club and a dedicated team of unpaid volunteers, would like to thank all of the Club Members who made the day possible. Everyone in the Club would also like to thank everyone who supported the event and kindly gave donations to make the event a highly successful day with a total of £550.00 raised.
Pennant Youth Club meets on every Friday between 6.00pm and 8.00pm at Pennant Community Centre. For further details or information please contact Gill Evans gill@evanspennant.co.uk or 07817099275.
