Youth Programme
F&BV CDT's Youth project for children from birth, now includes activities for ages S1-S6 as part of our Youth Pathways Programme. Led by Youth Worker, Alex at Eastfield Development Centre, the project offers a safe and supportive environment for young people to learn and grow and connect with others in the community.
