The inclusion of Youth & Play, Stay & Play and general community services at Our GreenHut makes our Charity's service offer unique and one of the first One O'clock Club buildings in Lambeth that has changed its use to integrated both early years and post-early years services in the same space.
Our response to the change is, we have designed the space and our play and learn service in a way that is wrapped-around our community providing cross-cutting benefits/outcomes for not only all ages of our community but also, encouraging Corporate and Commercial sector involvement for the benefit of the community.
We have in place a booking system that provide opportunity for the community and businesses to support our course through hiring our GreenHut at an affordable rate and/or book to use our 'Secret Garden' that is located at a secret location at Our GreenHut for a quiet reflection time for a group or the individual.

Our Core Activities:
We collaborate with local people, partners and secondary support sources to develop and run learning and capacity building opportunities that help children and young people to discover pathways that lead them to improving their life chances; for example, learning options that lead them to accessing more opportunities. We achieve this objective through co-production approaches involving young people, parents and partners to develop and offer diverse range of services on social housing estates in Lambeth. Each week, we engage with more than 250 young people in these core activities:
