main content Youngsters can Connect 'above and beyond'

Connect the new scheme for teenagers that is sweeping through Bromley is launching a range of quirky, cool, and affordable specialist ‘Above and Beyond’ days this October. ‘Above and Beyond’ days include a unique opportunity to get involved in film making, dance, health and beauty, together with singing and song writing.

’Above and Beyond’ days are part of the Connect card project aimed at 11 –19 year olds. The Connect card is FREE and acts as a young persons library card and Bromley Mytime leisure centre membership card. It also offers activities to young people in sports, the arts and includes all sorts of competitions and discounts.

The scheme is co-ordinated by Bromley Mytime, the biggest local leisure provider, in partnership with Bromley Council.

The ‘Above and Beyond’ days run from 10am to 4pm and are delivered by fully qualified staff and take place at Crofton Halls in Orpington and Beckenham Public Hall during the October half-term. Each day costs £25 for Connect card holders and £35 for non Connect card holders - Connect Cards are available FREE from your local library. As a bonus each day two lucky participants will only have to pay £1!

Spaces are limited, and are on a first come first served basis. For more information please call 020 8461 7210, email info@getoutmore.org.uk or visit the Connect website.
