Pie Factory Music offers a range of opportunities for young people to get creative, try new things, learn new skills, explore who they are and connect with others.
We do this through youth work, music and creative arts projects, pastoral care and counselling. We also offer opportunities for people and organisations who work and support young people and the wider community.
All our sessions, activities and programmes are free.
Our staff are trained to support people from all backgrounds and with varying needs, including young neurodivergent people.
There is a lot going on, in a good way. You can join Youth Club sessions, where you can play games, meet other people and just hang out. You can get involved in music and creative arts projects or spend time in the Band Room and recording studio, learning or honing music skills. We also have opportunities to progress your music career through our Pie Emerging Artists programme.
