WELCOME We have now been in the new premises for

around 18 months; we have a lovely new

kitchen (see below) creatively produced by

a great bunch of volunteers and some

brusho…. This allows us to cook with the

groups and they have been making some

very tasty snacks and meals.

There is still a long way to go - the roof yet

to be made watertight and the garden is on

a hiatus until our lovely volunteer Pete is

able to come in again, but its working well

overall and it is being well used by funded

projects and volunteer led activities alike.

We’re also able to provide a rehearsal space

for young people who were on the music

project as well as continuing the lessons

until the summer. All in all a good year,

we’ve survived in a time when we have lost

so many services - all the more reason to

keep going. A massive thank you to all the

people who keep us going; staff, volunteers,

committee members, funders and most of

all the wonderful young people we meet

who attend Small World, after all, this is

for you.

MUSIC

Funded by Youth Music for a total of three

years, this fantastic project gave young peo-

ple the opportunity to learn instruments,

perform on a stage and form bands and en-

sembles. The team are currently working

with SELFA to develop musical skills for

young people in the rural areas around Skip-

ton as well as providing lessons at Small

World

THE NEW KITCHEN

Utilising industrial materials the new kitch-

en is strong, safe and colourful. No chemi-

cal laded materials, no chipboard, mdf or

other...just steel and ash. Open plan shelv-

ing and good quality storage with re-

claimed school boxes for additional equip-

ment. We have a great induction cooker

and a panini grill for snacks. A great space

much loved by the young people.
