We're planning to launch our Homework Club. The club will run 4 times/week for 2 hours. We will target 50 disadvantaged BME young people who are struggling with their school work. We will offer homework support and guidance alongside advice on the benefits of healthy eating habits.

We're targeting young people from non-English speaking and disadvantaged families whose parents are unable to help them with their schoolwork. A high percentage live in overcrowded accommodation with no quiet space to call their own; this makes it virtually impossible for them to tackle their homework. Also essential to the project is encouraging healthy lifestyles to address worrying childhood obesity levels.
We're planning to launch a homework club to run 4 times a week for 2 hours. We will target 50 BME young people who need support with their schoolwork. 5 youth leaders (including 2 volunteers) will run the project, offering support and guidance, whilst equipping them with learning skills so that they become independent learners. Young people will enjoy healthy snacks to boost their energy and concentration levels so they develop healthy eating habits.
