RPT is a children's, youth and family support charity that has been operating in North Kensington for 140 years. We provide a range of sporting, cultural and educational activities which are delivered in the daytime, evenings and during holidays, both on and off site. On weekdays we offer support for our local families via a project called Magic Mums, 2 mornings a week we run a stay and play with often up to 50 parents and carers coming to allow their children to play but probably more importantly for the to meet other adults, make friendships and support each other. We open our Community Wardrobe during the stay and play sessions as we have the most amazing supporters who donate clothes, equipment and small household items and those who need it are free to take them. on Wednesday we run our wellbeing group, mums and carers meeting together to explore who they are, embracing change and a place for growth and reflection, followed by our Skills morning where we learn new skills; we have covered crochet, jewellery and currently are providing Sewing and upcycling classes. Our busiest services are after school Homework Club and Junior Club, 3 afternoons a week we have up to 50 children (6 plus) attend our homework club staffed by a brilliant bunch of volunteers after which they usually go down to junior club, table tennis, trampolining, gaming, music studio, drama, arts a whole array of activities to challenge and exhaust! Every weekday evening we provide a youth club for 13 plus reserving one night just for girls, Athena and one for boys, Mancave. Our young people explore sports, crafts, dance, music, recording, spoken word, Gym sessions and discussions galore.
