**Youth is a place for 11-17s to hang out, eat good food, play games, and ask honest questions about life and faith.** **Read more at [redeemermcr.com/youth](https://redeemermcr.com/youth).** We meet every second Saturday at [Chorlton Methodist Church](https://maps.app.goo.gl/JT2PdFSpKLTHRcsYA), from 6.30-8pm. In each session we explore a real-life theme, like anxiety, friendship, identity or hope, see what the Bible has to say about it, discuss it together, and there’s always a practical help that connects with real lives. ### A TYPICAL YOUTH SESSION * Dinner and games on arrival * Big chat: we introduce the main theme and some ideas to think about * Group discussion: young people get to think through and share their thoughts * Practical activity: learn techniques to help you right now * Hang out: video and board games, hanging out All Youth leaders are DBS checked and receive annual training in safeguarding (you can [read our safeguarding policy here](https://redeemermcr.com/safeguarding)). **Examples of topics we cover** (the young people decide what they want to learn about): * Body, mind, spirit — what does healthy look like?
