About your mentor
Warrington Youth Zone
Transforming the lives of young people
Warrington Youth Zone is a registered charity based right in the heart of Warrington. We aim to provide young people with somewhere to go, something to do and someone to talk to. Our holiday club provision ranges in age from 5 years old right the way up to age 19, across several sites in Warrington, aiming to give young people a range of experiences to make every half term exciting.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: My child doesn't like sports/arts - will there be something for them to do? A: Absolutely! We pick out a range of activities every hour to suit all tastes. We also keep an open play space available, so if they're really not fancying that hour's activities, there will still be things to do. Q: My child has allergies/dietary needs, should I bring a packed lunch? A: While you're welcome to do this, our catering team are more than happy to cater for individual dietary needs. All allergies/requirements are monitored daily, but if you are concerned we might miss something, please drop us an email at info@wyz.org.uk to discuss further. Q: Can you support children with SEND? A: We are not able to offer 1:1 or personal care on the club, however we have a number of SEND children who attend, and ensure that the activities we run are inclusive, and we have a staff member on hand should they become overwhelmed and need a few minutes away from the excitement of the day. Q: Can I pay for them to stay longer? A: We do run a full-day paid holiday club alongside our HAF spaces. Parents eligible for HAF can book a 'top-up' space for their young person by getting in touch with us directly. The top-up costs £10 per day, for access to the club from 8am-6pm. Q: Will they need any money with them? A: Everything is included in the holiday club, from lunch on arrival to snacks and fruit through the day. The only time they would need money is if they stay after the club on a Tuesday or Thursday for our Junior sessions. At 4pm, the café will open with food and drinks for sale from 50p to £1. This is separate from the holiday club, and so is not included in the booking.

In the case of cancellation or non-attendance, no refunds are available at this time.

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.
