About Off Script

 

Off Script is a youth group programme run by the Terminus Initiative, offering a fun, engaging and safe environment for young people aged 11 to 16. Sessions include activities such as karaoke, team games and creative challenges that help young people unwind, have fun and build confidence.

 

Held in the newly refurbished Eden Hub, Off Script is one of the few positive after school spaces available to young people in Lowedges. Many of the teenagers who come are navigating big questions about life, identity and belonging, and Off Script gives them a place where they can feel welcomed and supported.

 

Although the club is not overtly Christian in how it runs, it is shaped by Christian values. Volunteering here gives you the opportunity to live out and communicate your faith in a natural and relational way, coming alongside young people who are genuinely searching for truth, stability and connection.

​

Your Role

 

As a volunteer, you will help create a relaxed, friendly atmosphere where young people feel safe to be themselves. You will join in activities, chat with the young people and help them feel included. The aim is not to preach at them, but to show genuine care, consistency and kindness.
