Inclusive after School Club - 6-18 y/o

"I enjoy the friendly and accepting staff here, the activities and the adventure playground facilities. The club feels like a family, we all feel included. They make sure I feel safe and Happy" Miles (14 years old - participant)

My Tribes are after-school programs for neurodiverse people and their friends aged 6–18, providing a space where they can build friendships and community.

Based at Mint Street Adventure Playground in SE1 1QP, we invite you to just chill or play some board games, table tennis, table football or art and craft or participate in themed workshops like: art, learning to play chess, cooking, stress & anxiety management and we are open to listening to your ideas too.

From 3:30–5:15 pm, young children (ages 6-10) and teenagers (ages 11-18) join in a mixed-age session. From 5:15–6:15 pm, the program becomes a dedicated teens-only session, giving young people aged 11–18 additional time to connect with peers and participate in activities.

The mixed session gives both groups the opportunity to interact, play, and form friendships, while the later teen session focuses more on age-appropriate activities.

What do we do once we are there?
You can do arts and crafts, board games, table tennis, run around on the playground, sit and chat with others, spend time by yourself.

What if I feel nervous meeting new people?
Lots of people do. You can take your time and join in when ready.

Can I just watch at first?
Yes. That’s completely fine.

Do I need a diagnosis?
No diagnosis needed.

Can I bring someone with me?
Yes — you can bring a friend, parent, carer or support worker if helpful.

What should I bring?
You might like to bring:
a drink or snack
headphones
something that helps you feel comfortable in a new space

Do I need to come every time?
You’re welcome to come to one session or more. Many people choose to come regularly once they get to know the group.
