The toolkit is a comprehensive guide to setting up and running a youth club.
It is a resource which gives you step by step guidelines on how to set up a youth facility right from the very beginning. These guidelines will point you in the direction of where to get help from, how to form a committee and even write a constitution, how to budget and run your annual general meetings. The guidelines will assist you in writing all the required policies and procedures within a youth setting, and how to fulfil the required risk assessments. And once you are set up, there is information on how to involve young people, and how to organise a programme of activities.
The toolkit is available as a whole document or as individual chapters as below:
