What we offer
Over 100 young people reported improved confidence from taking part
Our Cashback Hubs programme is a fun way to grow your skills and confidence in a non-traditional environment, beyond the classroom or local youth club.
Over the course of the programme, using the arts as a tool, we will support you to feel more confident, overcome some of the hurdles you might be facing and gain qualifications.
You will be supported by a Creative Lead and a Wellbeing & Opportunities Worker. We will provide you with everything you need to get involved.
Where it suits your needs, we can also support you to gain qualifications like a Level 3 SQA unit.
