The Time Out Youth Project  acknowledged the Festival of Light (Diwali) by creating firework drawings with glitter and sampling traditional Indian food. Some young people had never tried Indian cuisine so this was a new experience for most of our young people.

TOYP acknowledged Remembrance Sunday by creating Poppies to wear and 1 young person aged 16 years drew a large Poppy for all to decorate and display in the Youth Room at SLC. Quizzes were taken on the subject, discussions arose & opinions/knowledge was shared.

Switch joined the project at one of the sessions to educate Young people on drugs and alcohol, limitations and the Law. Young People found this session very informative and interactive.
