CHYP@Port
This scheme is a development from the Easter holiday activities programme
in Port Clarence, run by the Corner House Youth Project (CHYP). The
activities went well enough to suggest that the young people and the
residents in Port Clarence would welcome further CHYP projects.
CHYP offers a Healthy Lifestyle Sports Initiative to young people aged 8-13
in the Clarence's area. The project involves and engages young people in a
variety of different activities, all in a safe, friendly and supportive
environment. Current CHYP practice is to involve young people in the
decision-making process of planning and delivery of activities.
The project also delivers issue-based work through youth work practice,
i.e. workshops and social activities, enabling the young people to explore
differing values, ideas and opportunities, which will increase their
confidence and aims in life.
If you are interested in taking part or require further details contact the
