Welcome to Somerville Youth Provision
The Somerville Youth Provision provides activities for young people from school year 7 upwards.
Our aim is to deliver a variety of activities that are stimulating and challenging, that are informal, fun and educational for young people. Experienced staff develop a programme to steer them away from crime and anti-social behaviour by giving them the opportunity to learn new skills, build friendships, overcome barriers and gain new experiences.
We want to ensure that our young people gain in confidence and self-esteem so that they fulfil their full potential.
