Each week around the Leeds area, The Boys' Brigade works with over 200 children & young people in 8 companies (groups) around the City. The Boys' Brigade provides a balanced programme of activities for children and young people from 5 to 18 years old. These resources have been developed to help volunteer youth leaders work in a relevant and creative way. Through these programmes the Boys' Brigade will be able to make a positive contribution to a young person's values, beliefs and lifestyle.
