About Blackburn Youth Zone
Blackburn Youth Zone is a 21st-century Youth Zone at the heart of the borough, open to young people aged 5 to 25. Since April 2025, the charity has expanded its offer to support children from birth to 5 years old through the launch of Baby Zone, ensuring support begins at the very earliest stages of life.
With a state-of-the-art £5 million facility in Blackburn and an additional Youth Zone site now established in Darwen, the organisation is extending its reach and impact across the whole community. Together, these spaces provide safe, inspiring environments where young people can access “somewhere to go, something to do, and someone to talk to.”
