Can I encourage other families to complete the form soon so we can start planning which children and young people are wanting to be part of the 6 week Summer Programme and digital clubs and groups over the coming months.
Thanks

During the phased exit of lockdown from COVID-19 children and young people will still not be able to return to their clubs and groups in our centre.
Instead, PY is continuing to develop other ways to connect, setting up digital clubs and groups and communicating through video chat and WhatsApp messaging. This is all still in the planning stages and it won't be all our clubs will become virtual overnight. We will test some clubs out and see how it goes.
By asking you to confirm if you think your child/children will want to be involved will give us an indication of how we will be running clubs and how many staff need to be involved. A lot of the activities we are planning for the 6 week Summer holidays will be around sending out activity packs such as arts and crafts, games and cooking/ baking where you can be involved too. We also hope to run some fun competitions and challenges. To help young people stay connected to their friends and PYCP staff, we will encourage you to share photos and videos of their activities on our Facebook page. As with every club and holiday programme in the past we love sharing photographs and videos in our newsletters and with funders.
What do we need from you?
You can really help us by providing your most up to date details for contacting you and your child. If your child/children has not had a Registration and Consent form completed since end August 2019 then you will need to complete one of these before filling in this form. Please email info@pycp.co.uk for a consent form to be posted to you.
As you are their parent or guardian (if under 16) we will not be doing this without your permission so we need to ask you to complete this on behalf of all your children aged 5 - 15 (over 16 - 18 can complete the form themselves or you can complete for them).
We will not share any of your personal data with any other organisation and the information you give us will be used to help us create fun exciting activities for your child/children to do at home or outdoors. Please see our Privacy Notice on our website, pycp.co.uk/our-privacy-notice/ to find out more.
You can also email us at info@pycp.co.uk to ask any questions direct or any suggestions you think might help us.
PY Team
Happy Sunny Monday to you all!
Did you you know that this week is Volunteer's Week 2020 volunteersweek.org/
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all our committed and dedicated volunteers who work PYCP in our clubs and groups and also on our board of trustees. Everyone gives their time freely and provide real value to the team and the young people love having volunteers in our clubs and groups.
Volunteering at PYCP has given many of the volunteers a chance to learn new skills, gain experience and training whilst having fun. Volunteering can make you feel connected to something outwith your own friends and family, the social contact aspect of helping and working with others can have a profound effect on your overall well-being. Volunteering provides many benefits to both mental and physical health too.
We look forward to having our volunteers back at the project in the near future and continuing to support the children, young people and families we work with.

Make your own bird house!
Do you have an empty milk or juice cartons? Next one you find cut out the sides and decorate. Hang it outside and watch the birds check out their new shelter 🦜😀

Special wishes to you on your lockdown special birthday.
Did you get that lego for your birthday???
Love from all the PY team xx
Want the kids to learn some new skills? Maybe write a letter to a friend or Grandparent that they miss or a lonely neighbour etc. It could keep them busy for a wee while, especially over the Weekend! 😃
