All families residing in the United Kingdom have the right to receive financial support for the care of their children. The state has a set of contributions for which each family can apply and benefit according to their needs. Our after school activities are supported through the CHILDCARE Benefit https://www.gov.uk/childcare-grant.

Every child between the ages of 8 and 18 has the right to carry out extracurricular activities and receive support from the state, which contributes 85% of the cost of these activities and the family would contribute the remaining 15%.

However, from our Child and Youth Care Program, and in order to contribute to the sustainability of our families, we assume that remaining 15% in such a way that no family that belongs to this project does not have to make any contribution. extra in your economy.

The Hispanic Uk Center together with Mentor ASC, offer a set of activities that take place throughout the week, from Monday to Friday from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm.

With the support of Childcare, each participant has the right to participate in each of the activities that are taught during each day. These activities are designed to cover all areas of interest for young people and infants and can be grouped into:

• School support activities (science and mathematics)
• Languages (Spanish and English)
• Sports (swimming, boxing, soccer, among others)
• Plastic expression (painting and drawing)
• Music (singing, guitar, violin and piano)
• Body expression (dance, sound and movement)

It is very important to point out that, in each center, the activities are developed according to the demand and interest of the community, so we do not close the possibilities of including other activities or that one of the mentioned activities is not offered in some of the centers.
