Welcome to Mahdlo Youth Zone

WELCOME TO MAHDLO YOUTH ZONE

Mahdlo Youth Zone is more than just a place to hang out – it’s a safe, inclusive, and inspiring space where young people aged 8–19 (and up to 25 with additional needs) can discover new passions, build confidence, and make lifelong friends.

At Mahdlo, we believe in unlocking potential. That’s why we provide a huge range of activities and experiences every week, all designed to help young people grow, learn and thrive – here’s a taste of what’s on offer:

🎨 Creative Arts – from music and dance to drama and design, there’s always something imaginative happening.

Sports & Fitness – with a state-of-the-art gym, climbing wall, boxing ring, and sports hall, there’s something for every energy level and ability.

🔬 Skills for Life – we support young people with life skills, career advice, mentoring, and leadership programmes that help build a brighter future.

🌈 Inclusive Support – our sessions are designed to be welcoming to all, with specific nights and services tailored to young people with additional needs.

🍽️ Nutritious Meals – we offer hot, healthy food  so no one misses out.

🫱 Safe Spaces to Belong – whether your young person wants to get stuck into an activity or simply relax with friends, Mahdlo is a place where they can be themselves.

Everything we do is built around the needs of young people – helping them to build confidence, independence, and positive relationships. Whether it’s trying something new, getting support when it’s needed, or just having fun, Mahdlo is here to help your child grow into their best self.
