SING Summer Activities
We wanted to update everyone about what is being planned for Soul in Northolt and Greenford summer activities weeks.
Our main 'Soul' Week will be on the week beginning 9th August. We have a week of dance, sports, crafts and other activities planned such as birds of prey, circus skills and drum workshops.
This year for the first time we are planning to provide something every week during August. Based on requests from the young people, we are also running a Film Week on the week beginning 2nd August, Girls Only Week of fashion, self defence and modelling beginning the 16th August and Lads Only Week from the 23rd with big boy's toys & rugby.
