Renegades Youth Club at Loxwood

Renegades is an exciting and unusual youth group based in the Wisborough Green and surrounding villages of West Sussex. Born out of the Scout movement but with a freer and more creative approach, it is open to any child aged 10 – 18 in the Weald School catchment area.

But most of all it is fun! From archery and astronomy to carpentry and camping, via drama, night hikes and restoring a go kart… you name it and we do it! COVID safeguarded and determined to keep the children as active and engaged as possible, we offer both large mixed activity groups and specialist small group activities six days a week.

Renegades  Age 10 – 18
Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday every week – 6.30 until 8.00pm
Sunday Mornings – 9.00 until 12.30 pm

Rascals Youth Club Age 7-9 years
