.: Active Ten20 :.

activeTEN20 has a proven track record of working effectively with young people in rural areas since the organisation was founded over fifty years ago. Previously Known as Oxfordshire Association for Young people (OAYP) and prior to that as Oxfordshire Boys/Girls Clubs the charity is steeped in rich history. Our aim is to meet the needs of young people throughout Oxfordshire irrespective of geographic, social or economic status and to encourage them to realise their potential as individuals and as part of the community.

The services we offer young people are developed around the following three key areas:

Information & Education – Engaging and empowering young people through the provision of current and relevant information. Providing training opportunities for young people and those working with young people

Participation – Offering young people the opportunity to engage in a variety of activities which aim to encourage personal and social development.

Support – Supporting young people and those working with young people through developing a network of affiliated clubs, services and other opportunities.

To deliver our services we have developed a range of projects within our different departments; ‘Active Bodies’, ‘Active Minds’ and ‘Active Clubs’. For more information about our services please goto the department pages or give us a call.
