Harrow Club
Harrow Club, 187 Freston Road, London, W10 6TH
We’re very proud of the Harrow Youth Club based here at the Harrow Club. The club runs junior and senior sessions for young people in the local area.
We have an engaging range of activities to keep all our members entertained and help them develop valuable life skills. As part of the club you can take part in football teams, music workshops, arts and crafts, dance, drama, boxing, cookery and a range of other sport and educational programmes.
We also provide programmes during the school holidays. In addition to activities in London, we also give young people an opportunity to experience life outside the city environment by giving them the opportunity to attend residential events at a variety of places all over the country. This year’s residential was in Herefordshire and young people had the opportunity to participate in water sports, quadbiking and climbing as well as team building and many more activities.
All our members are encouraged to make an active contribution to the life of the youth club and the local community.

Old Oak Club
Old Oak Community Centre, Old Oak, 76 Braybrook Street, East Acton, London, W12 0AP
Part of the Harrow Club family, the Old Oak Youth Club is based on the Old Oak Estate in East Acton. We’ve been running the club since 2011 and in that time we’ve formed a good partnership with the local community centre.
The main aim of the club is to provide local young people with readily accessible and high-quality opportunities, enabling them to maximise their life chances and personal development. The club’s sessions are all mixed gender and open to all young people.
We run both junior and senior sessions at the club and offer a wide variety of activities including sports, music production, cooking, arts and crafts. In the summer term the juniors also hold a celebration party for all they have achieved – it is well attended by parents who value the work the club does and with whom we have built strong relationships.
Our door is always open to new members, so please pop by if you’re interested in joining.

Sands End Youth Club
Sands End Adventure Playground (SEAPIA), Marinefield Road, London, SW6 2LL
Also run by the Harrow Club, the Sands End Youth Club is a community-based youth club located near Fulham Broadway. The main aims of the club are to work with local disadvantaged and socially excluded young people to help improve their self-confidence and increase their opportunities.
Since we opened in 2012 we’ve been working in partnership with the Adventure Playground. We have also recently built strong partnerships with London Sports Trust who provide cooking sessions and employment support for the young people. We are also working closely with Chelsea in the Community who run their community football sessions from the club on a Wednesday.
We connect with young people through a variety of methods and settings, that enable them to maximise their life chances and personal development goals. We do this by assessing young people’s needs through surveys, user forums and outreach programmes, and then we deliver projects and programmes to meet these needs. Our youth committee is also essential to help us develop our programme.

White City Adventure Café, Canada Way, London W12 7DE
Another of our sister youth clubs is the White City Youth Club, based in the heart of the White City Estate. The club uses the White City Adventure Café as a hub and has been running since 2011.
We’ve formed a strong relationship with a number of local partners in the area, including the Safe Neighbourhood Team, Phoenix High School, Randolph Beresford and The Big Local. Together we’re looking out for local young people and providing them with new, exciting opportunities. Our club offers a safe environment for these young people to socialise and learn enriching skills that they will take with them for the rest of their lives.
Within the club we run a variety of projects including photography, football, fitness, cooking and learning about different cultures. During the school holidays we also hold a number of special programmes to keep young people engaged and inspired.
