Social Clubs

8th Portsmouth Girls’ Brigade (GB) has been in
existence for more than 80 years.
The volunteer leaders love working with girls
and young women… seeing them make friends,
learn new skills, achieve, have fun, and learn
more about Jesus week by week.
We’re part of Solent District GB and often join
in with other groups for action-packed activities.

The centre is a sport and activity facility. The centre has a large sports hall, a dance studio and meeting spaces available for hire.

Hillside Youth Club gives young people a place to go outside of school, free of charge and offers them a sense of belonging. The activities and support from youth workers allows the young people to learn new skills, build confidence and resilience for the future- as well as have fun! It really can be life changing to come along and join in!

Our goal is to inspire and enable people to give the gift of voluntary service to meet the needs of the day in their communities. We believe that our volunteers’ service makes them, and Britain, healthier and happier.

We also work closely with the NHS, providing valuable support services that allow hardworking hospital staff time to focus on looking after the people in their care.

Working one-to-one, in groups and online, our network of trained volunteers provide the time and skills that help people feel stronger, healthier and more able to cope with any challenges they may be facing.

Through social activities and groups, they create connections and friendships that help communities thrive and boost the wellbeing of the people involved.

Our services vary from area to area and in some cases are available via your local authority or health services.
