The Guitar Group The Guitar Group founded and led by Father Charles continues to bring together young people who share an interest in music and especially the guitar.
Rhyl Youth Justice & Peace Group The Rhyl Youth Justice & Peace group was founded at the begging of 2013 by Amy Davies and Michael Richards. The group meets every other Sunday and like any other youth group they enjoy music, movies, games and generally socialising. However, they are more than just a youth club and as their title implies they work closely on issues that not only affect their community but issues that affect society all over the world. The group recently held a Fun Day to raise money for the “IF Campaign”. This campaign was to raise the idea of enough food for everyone and the campaign was active recently at the G8. Amy and Michael visited Parliament and CAFOD Headquarters in London recently. The group are also looking at forming an anti-poverty awareness project to inform and involve young people in seeking to help tackle poverty issues.
Our Future One Rhyl Continues to grow and develop, with new projects being introduced. One Rhyl continues to work in partnership with all local third sector organisations and the authorities, to help build a better future for our community. One Rhyl continues to support local residents in challenging issues that they believe have a negative impact on their town and its inhabitants. One Rhyl is currently looking at the possibility of purchasing a property to develop into a community building. A building for the community and developed by the community.
