About Us
We are an award-winning Youth Provision with a team of experienced and qualified DBS checked youth workers who work with 10 to 19 year-olds in Lichfield and Burntwood.
Our primary focus is to provide young people with enjoyable opportunities and challenging experiences together with support and information to enable them to achieve their full potential in their transition into adulthood.
We are a constituted group set up Fun Club Hub in Jan 2015 with the help from SCVYS. We started with one youth club and have gone from strength to strength. We now run 6 provisions across the district.
We are funded by the Police Crime Commissioner, Lichfield District Council and Burntwood Council.
As youth workers, we are able to meet young people in a safe environment to offer friendly and supportive advice and information on a range of topics to encourage safe and informed choices.
We can help young people to access more specialist support. We operate the C- Card (contraception) schemes and have links with other specialist services if you need help.
We encourage participation for young people to be part of our future planning and promote the voice of young people through our Youth Forum.​
What We Do
We create and plan youth work opportunities and activities with young people to provide positive, affordable activities that aren't delivered through clubs and schools.
We offer informal activities around the transition to secondary school, offering a variety of
issue-based subjects based on the group’s needs including:
-
The building of young people’s self-esteem and confidence
-
Create learning to develop new skills
-
Develop and widen young people’s horizons and social commitments to develop a sense of responsibility for their self and their community.

Space
Since 2015 we have worked with Staffordshire Commissioner who has provided funding for the Space programme.
​
The Space Programme offers free, positive diversionary activities for young people during the summer holidays. Its aims to reduce levels of anti-social behaviour, promoting personal health, social development, and team building.
Youth Forum
The Youth Forum is a group of 10 young people who have been elected by Fun Club Members across Lichfield and Burntwood.
They represent young people’s views to people who make key decisions about young people in the district. They are working very hard to find out the views of young people in the local area to establish a clear picture of their issues aspirations and concerns by undertaking a consultation designed by young people.
