ABOUT - KEEPING KIDS OFF THE STREETS

Our aim with Keeping Kids Off The Streets CIC is to build and create inclusive connected Community Centres in Milton Keynes and afar that provide a focal point for communities. All of these drop-in centres will be FREE at the point of service for anyone in their local community. 

• Outside School Times – Facilities will be open for the members of the public to drop in whenever they like. 
• Workshop Intervals – All workshops will be run by different supervisors; offering multiple workshops from boxing, music bricklaying, videography, dance and many more!
• Local Community – Once each Community Centre has been opened we will survey the local population to confirm which workshops they would like to have on offer. 
• Children First – As part of our identity, children will be put first ahead of adult workshops for each activity. 
• Free Equipment – Providing the equipment is not being used in a workshop session. Equipment will be available for anyone visiting the drop-in and fulfilling a register; in a similar model to how a library works. 
• Catering Facilities – Tea and coffee-making facilities will be available on all premises; allowing anyone in the local community to use them for free. Depending on the location there might also be areas available for food preparation such as neighourhood barbeques etc. 
• Entertainment Facilities – Outside of the workshops we will have a projector available for television use, DVDs and console sessions in the local community.
• Preventing Social Issues – We will focus on presentations from the local community or events from industry-led professionals or athletes to talk about social issues. This will aid and build social cohesion. 

We aim to provide a platform for all to grow and become their self best through collaboration. We can use all of the local communities’ unique skills to support each other with new innovative ideas.
