Homework & After-School Clubs in Nottingham

If you're after somewhere for the kids after school that won't cost anything, Hyson Green Youth Club is the one to know about. It's free, drop-in, no booking needed, and covers a wide age range, with sessions for 5 to 11s and open access for teenagers. It's close to the centre, so it's an easy pickup if you're coming from work. The YMCA International Community Centre, right in the centre, works differently. It's not a drop-in club itself, more a space local groups hire out for homework clubs and activities, so what's on depends on who's running that day. There's a cafe and it's wheelchair accessible, which helps if you're waiting around with other children in tow. Between the two, Hyson Green suits younger kids after school and casual teenage drop-in, while the YMCA is worth a look if you want a specific term-time club rather than open access.
