Stratton St Margaret Parish Council have been running varied youth club sessions for young members of the Swindon public.
The Stratton Council youth club sessions run every Monday to Thursday, from 3.30pm - 5.30pm.
The team meet at the Meadowcroft Community Centre.
Over the past few weeks, the council's youth club have been engaging in a number of varied activities.
A BBQ session was held from the Meadowcroft site where the young attendees were provided with a safe space to chat, socialise with new friends and also think about how they want to shape their youth provision going forward.
The council says it loves hearing from its youth club's attendees and what they would like to see from the community group.
The club also ran a cooking session. Pancakes were the first thing on the menu and the youth club staff say they went down a treat.
In addition, the council's youth club were said to have had a successful first day at the Youth allotment space.
A spokesperson for the Stratton Council said: "Six young People spent three hours working and devising a plan for the first stage of the work. Two parents stayed back as well and this went really well everyone had lots of fun finding creeping crawlies as well as properly getting stuck in."
Members of the public can join the allotment sessions every Wednesday, from 10am-2pm. These sessions are for those aged between 10 - 14.
Those interested can turn up at the Meadowcroft centre and leader Shea will provide some kit, and there will be a variety of different tasks for young people to do.
Lunch will also be provided for those undertaking the allotment sessions.
