"What people say"
This was my first walk with the lovely team at Yuvanis. It was really well managed and led. It was so nice walking and discovering Shaw and meeting new, friendly faces and also some old faces which was a nice surprise. It was an enjoyable and easy walk for beginners. The waterfall at the end was beautiful and worth all the steps! And the chat and tea was the icing on the cake. I look forward to more walks with Yuvanis in future and highly recommend to all 😊

I've attended our second "mums and tots" session. Theres lots of toys to play with. Lots of children to play with. And mums of similar age and background, makes it an enjoyable session for me too. Snacks are provided too. Easy parking, makes it super easy. So glad I've finally found a group

Absolutely amazing experience. The staff and team were very professional and welcoming. Very organised. Felt very comfortable leaving my children at such safe hands. The kids really enjoyed their time at the club. Full of educational and fun activities. Kids really want to go back for some more. The trip to Blackpool Zoo was the icing on the cake! Hats off to the team. Great work! Keep it up.

Yuvanis is a hardworking comprehensive organisation supporting all ages and diverse groups.
My daughter and son loved their HAF programme once again. The volunteers did a great job at welcoming my daughter into the sessions as she was nervous initially. Thank you so much for all that you do Yuvanis.
From a delighted and grateful Mum and Dad. ❤

This was the first time my son attended the Yuvanis summer club. He has been to previous summer clubs from other organisations and would always come back saying he was bored and there was nothing to do there. He was never enthusiastic to go back the next day. This time he came home and said "he had so much fun" and was eager to go back the next day. He made new friends. The sessions were fun and jam packed with activities and on top educational too! All the staff were professional and friendly. Thank you for providing a service that actually meets the kids needs, and for making it a fun "summer club" rather than just a babysitting club.

I've been attending the Mums and Tots group and I've loved it. Being a first time mum can be incredibly isolating, but the support and love from like-minded mums here is invaluable. Coming here on a weekly basis is refreshing and it's something I look forward to each week. It's something that has kept me sane and has provided me with some much-needed social stimulation, which has worked wonders for my own mental health as a first time mum.

I went on a community walk with a few ladies to Chadderton Park today and it was really great. I enjoyed the conversations along the way and the views. Such a great institute that encourages the well-being of women and children in the local community. Lovely and friendly organisers 🙂

Wow, what an amazing outing this weekend! It was such a great opportunity to connect with some incredible people, recharge, and enjoy real fun away from the everyday grind. Huge credit to Yuvanis, in collaboration with Aspire Burnley and Become United — you never fail to inspire and unite.
