About

YOOF is our youth group for young people between the ages of 10 and 18.  The presence of our group gives youmg people an opportunity to get together socially.

We meet on a Sunday evening from 7.00 – 8.30 in The Parish Hall on Hallgarth Pickering.

The group is open to those of all faiths or none. Our evening usually flows like this:

• 20 – 30 minutes of Christian input – we like this session to be interactive and challenging for the leaders and the young people.
• 30 minutes of art and crafts, drama or cooking – usually messy and fun.
• Games – lively, definately interactive and very enjoyable. 

The aim of the Group is to provide a safe place where young people can learn, have fun, take part in such activities as drama, arts & crafts, cooking and music (though this is not an exhaustive list), play games, and enjoy each others’ company. There is an opportunity for them to explore, discuss and discover aspects of the Christian faith. There are also outings to places of interest or to do specific activities. We like to encourage team working and consideration of others.

There is no charge for membership. All leaders and helpers are CRB checked and approved by the Parochial Church Council for this work.
