Shine Lincolnshire is delighted to announce the acquisition of its new Children and Family Youth Centre in Cherry Willingham, marking an exciting new chapter in community support for local children, young people and families.
The new hub, named the Wright Way Youth Centre, will provide a safe, welcoming and inclusive space designed to support the wellbeing, development and connection of people across the community. The centre will become a dedicated place where children, young people, parents and families can access activities, support and opportunities close to home.
Located in the heart of Cherry Willingham, the centre will host a wide range of community initiatives throughout the year, including youth groups, toddler sessions, family events and wellbeing activities. Alongside support for children and young people, the hub will also offer dedicated groups and opportunities for parents and adults, helping to tackle isolation, improve wellbeing and strengthen community connections.
The Wright Way Youth Centre will work closely with local partner, schools, residents and community organisations to ensure activities and support reflect the needs of local families while creating opportunities for people of all ages to come together.
The centre forms part of Shine ongoing commitment to improving mental health, wellbeing for all ages and ensuring accessible community connection across the county through, community-based support.

The Wright Way Sports Youth Centre will give us the opportunity to provide meaningful activities, support and opportunities for the local community, while creating a safe and welcoming environment where people can connect, grow and access support when they need it.
This is something we are hugely passionate about, and we are looking forward to seeing the centre become a real family hub for Cherry Willingham and the surrounding areas.”
In addition to regular groups and activities, the centre will also host seasonal events, and family-focused activities throughout the year, creating opportunities for families to connect, learn and spend time together in a supportive environment.
