PY: New Date for Sponsored Walk

New Date for our Sponsored Walk

Saturday 29th August

Our Youth Committee are taking on an exciting sponsored challenge to raise vital funds for PYCP. This time they’re pushing themselves even further by climbing a Munro, Ben Chonzie in Perthshire, as part of a sponsored walk!

This challenge is a fantastic opportunity for our young people to:

✅ Build confidence

✅ Work as a team

✅ Get outdoors

✅ Raise funds to support children and young people in our community

To sponsor the group and support the young people as they take on this challenge you can do it two ways:

• JustGiving – https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/pyhighlands

• CAF Donate – https://cafdonate.cafonline.org/28035#!/DonationDetails

Every contribution, big or small makes a real difference to the work we do.

PY’s Chat & Chill Cafe’s Back!

☀️ Hello June… and welcome back Chat & Chill Café! ☕

As we kick off a new month, we’re delighted to welcome everyone from our local community back to our Chat & Chill Café for three relaxed get-togethers this June:

📅 Thursday 4th June

📅 Thursday 11th June

📅 Thursday 18th June

🕛 12:00 – 1:30pm

Come along, grab some free lunch, enjoy a cuppa and have a good old catch-up with neighbours or even meet some new friends! 😊

You don’t have to have children coming to PYCP.

Whether you fancy a chat, a laugh, or just a warm, welcoming space, you’ll find it here. Everyone is welcome! 💜

A wee note for families:

We don’t have a crèche available so children under 5 are very welcome but must be supervised by a parent or carer at all times.

We’d love to see you there ☕✨

Please share with family and friends.

To all our local neighbours:

For the next 7 weeks we are trialling a warm safe space for our Chat & Chill Cafe. Our first one is this Thursday 12 February midday to 2pm.

Whether you have children attending PYCP or not, EVERYONE in our community is welcome to join us.

Pop in, chill out and enjoy a warm space filled with good vibes and good company.

We will be serving up free homemade soup, tasty sandwiches and some extra treats to brighten your day.

Each session comes with giveaway goodies and a lively round of prize bingo (no cost to you).
