Enjoy the winter with Offaly Foróige clubs

Young people in Offaly are spoiled with choice this winter with 21 different clubs to choose from for a wide range of activities and events over the next few months. Catering for youths between the ages of twelve and eighteen, the clubs across the county from Lusmagh to Clonbollugue and beyond give teenagers the opportunity to socialise with their peers in a safe, supervised, fun environment. The youngsters participate in various activities including a wide variety of games and sports along with community projects like the upcoming Youth Citizenship awards, the national finals of which took place yesterday (Thursday) in the Helix in Dublin. Two new clubs will open next week Monday, November 2, at 8pm in Carrig/Riverstown and Mucklagh. New members and volunteer adult leaders would be most welcome on the night.
