YMCA Plymouth is thrilled to announce the relaunch and rebrand of its renowned Holiday Youth Club, as the YMCA 8-2-5 Club Running from 8am to 5.30pm throughout the school holidays, for ages 8-16, the club will be starting this Easter – packed full of engaging activities for kids who are on-the-go as much as their busy parents!
For over four decades, YMCA Plymouth has been a staple of safe and exciting youth activities in the city. The new 8-2-5 Club sets itself apart from the previous club, with the heaps of brand-new activities packing out each day alongside the new branding. Children will also have options for what activities they want to take part in across the day depending on their interests – or how much energy they have! Additionally, YMCA has invested in lots of new kit, refreshing even the old Holiday Club favourites, such as their super-sized Sports Hall dodgeball matches.
What hasn’t changed with the Club, is the safe, welcoming and inclusive ethos that YMCA’s Holiday Clubs are known for, led by their experienced youth workers.

The upcoming Easter Half-Term promises an array of exciting activities, including team games like capture-the-flag, themed arts & crafts sessions, Nerf parties, “street surfing” skating sessions, talent shows, trips to local attractions and much more!
Sarah Newberry, Youth & Families Manager at YMCA Plymouth said:
“We’re super excited to introduce the all-new 8-2-5 Club, where children can engage in all kinds of fun practical activities, make new friends and create lasting memories.”
“Our priority is to provide a safe, fun, and enriching environment for children. We have over 40 years of experience, are Ofsted registered and all staff undergo enhanced DBS checks as well as hold all relevant accredited qualifications.”
“Parents can rest assured their children will be making the most of the school holiday while they’re at work, or taking a well-earned break themselves.”
The main multi-activity session runs from 9:30am to 3:30pm, for only £17 per child, with the additional early and late add-on sessions available for just £3 each.
Children can also enjoy delicious meals and drinks from the on-site Bistro or bring their own packed lunch.
In line with its charitable commitments, YMCA 8-2-5 Club also offers free spaces in the club, supported through the Plymouth City Council “Fit & Fed” scheme. These spaces include hot lunches from the café and are available for eligible children meeting specific criteria.
So if you’re looking for a safe, fun, affordable activity club for your young-ones this Easter, be sure book your child’s spot at YMCA 8-2-5 Club!
