Bury Youth Service

Bury Youth Service aims to provide the very best of facilities and services for young people in the Borough.

As well as youth centres in each area, there are opportunities for young people to join The Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme, The Millennium Volunteers programme, arts projects, holiday schemes, outdoor pursuits and residential trips.

The service works alongside the Parks Department to improve facilities for teenagers in parks and public spaces.

There is a Youth Cabinet and Area Youth Action Groups in each area that meet to discuss provision and other issues for young people.

The Youth Service works closely with Connexions Bury and Personal Advisers work in youth centres. Your Personal Adviser can put you in touch with local youth centres and activities.
