About Us

SO MUCH MORE THAN A YOUTH ZONE.

We are Inspire Youth Zone and we are a community charity investing in the thousands of young people.

We give young people the opportunity to meet friends, have new experiences, learn new skills and access the support they need to develop and achieve their potential.

Open 7 days a week when schools are closed, we provide an inspirational environment for more than 5,000 local young people and for some, a critical lifeline.

The Youth Zone is open to all young people across the local area aged from 8 to 19 (up to 25 with additional needs.)

We are home to facilities that you can’t find anywhere else in one place locally, from a climbing wall to an underground pitch, boxing ring, gym and pottery studio – there’s something here for everyone!

I enjoy coming to the youth zone because there’s plenty of opportunities & activities to get involved with. You can gain a lot of confidence, independance and skills. I wouldn’t know what I would be doing if it wasn’t for Inspire Youth Zone.

A charity at the centre of our community, a place where young people can be safe, be inspired and have fun!

OUR MISSION

To provide an inspirational and exciting place for young people of Chorley to make friends, try new things, have fun and get support if they need it.

OUR VALUES

Commitment - Inspirational - Supportive - Present - Ambition

“The Youth Zone is inspiring. It’s achieving incredible results and I’m delighted and committed to be part of their journey, helping to create a safer, happier and healthier future for all of our town’s young people.”

“People have been telling us that our young people need somewhere to go where they can enjoy their spare time and to help them fulfil their potential, this Youth Zone would deliver something exciting for all young people across Chorley. By working together we could create a top class facility, giving our young people somewhere they could be proud of.”

"I cannot wait for the Youth Zone to open, especially to see my own and other young people’s creativity come to life. This is a great chance for all our ideas to be heard."

"The young people of Chorley deserve an OnSide Youth Zone which will give them a safe and inspiring place to spend their leisure time, and we are on the road to making that dream a reality.”

Inspire makes such a difference to the lives of the youngsters in our community.
