HiveAbility is the Hive Youth Zone’s fully inclusive session where every young person—regardless of ability, background, or identity—is welcomed. These sessions provide tailored support for young people with learning difficulties through accessible activities, trained staff, and a nurturing environment that encourages confidence, independence, and meaningful social connections.

HiveAbility: Sundays 10am to 2pm (8-19 years (up to 25 years with additional needs)
Hiveability 13+: Tuesdays 5pm to 8pm (13-19 years (up to 25 with additional needs)
