About your mentor
Krunch South West
Krunch South West
Krunch South West is local youth charity experienced in running all kinds of activities for young people. We have been running HAF provision in South Gloucestershire for 10 - 16 year olds for several years. We have a team of trained and friendly youth workers ready to welcome your child and help them to feel at home and offer whatever support is needed to help them engage in the activities. Activities include: cooking, creative arts/crafts, bushcraft/forest activities, sports, table tennis etc. We also run adventurous trips such as Ninja Warrior, watersports, Airhop, Archery tag etc. All young people who come to our HAF activities give us a glowing report and all say they would like to come again! Our bespoke venue - The Pod - is a converted shipping container next to Thornbury Skate park, perfect for young people to hang out, grab a drink or snack and chill with friends.

It is the responsibility of the booker to satisfy themselves about the adequacy of the measures provided above and any other details represented in this listing. This platform is merely an introducer and does not verify the items listed.
Cancellation policy
Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.
My experience consists of a leisure activity, on a specific date(s), and therefore the 14-day ‘cooling off period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 does not apply.
