You'll find us in the little rooms at the back left of the main arena (as you're facing the stage). They have glass windows/walls so you'll be able to see what's going on in the arena.

This is a small (hosted) breakout space where you can come and have some quiet if the arena feels too overstimulating. All young people must be dropped off by a youth leader and it’s fine to use it as a drop in and out space or stay for the whole time. We also have some ear defenders which can be borrowed if you’ve left yours at the tent. There'll be sensory lighting, fidget toys and some beanbags.

Please note:
- this is a space for young people, unfortunately we’re not able to accommodate youth leaders due to space. 
- this is a sensory space for young people who might need support. If you want a space to chill, stretch out, be around less people or slightly less noise - please use Relay.

We'll be serving communion in the meeting today. There will be a team serving in Relay so you can take communion, if you wish, in here - you don't need to come to the arena.

Come and join us during the main meetings. There is space to spread around, and a relaxed vibe if you need to be able to move more too, or you find it helpful to have fewer people around you. The venue is hosted by the Transform team as well as having everything from the arena shown on a big screen. There'll also be writing, drawing, journaling, colouring supplies for you to use whilst you engage with the session. It’s ideal if you need somewhere calmer than the arena whilst also hearing the talk and space to worship.

Where is your treasure?
Monday August 10, 2026 2:00pm - 2:45pm BST
The Clubhouse
Jesus tells us that “where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” What we do with the money (and stuff) we have is closely connected to what, or who, we love. So how can we use what we have for Jesus? The choices we make about how we get and spend money, and where it goes in the meantime, can set patterns for our whole lives.  What else does Jesus have to say about money? How can our approach to money help us think about the things we care about – living in fair and safe communities, and taking care of nature, for example? Come and unpack what the Bible has to say and what it might look like in practice in the 21st century to follow Jesus with our money.

Church scandals. Leadership failures. Church hurt. Many young people are wondering whether the Church is still worth trusting - many youth leaders are too. How do we acknowledge real hurt without surrendering to cynicism? Together we'll explore how to help young people love Jesus and His Church with a resilient faith that can withstand disappointment and discover a vision of the Church that's honest about its brokenness, confident in its hope, and worth loving, trusting, and helping to build.

Help! I stuggle with low mood
Monday August 10, 2026 3:15pm - 4:00pm BST
Canopy
Whether we call it feel low, depression, sadness, or melancholy - we all feel it from time to time.
But when it lingers, sticks or begins to weigh us down what can we do? What’s the difference? And what do we need to watch for?

This session will explore what we can do when we feel low, how we can help others (or get help from others) and how philosophers and mystics have wrestled with the question: What can we do with low mood?

Unity sounds great… until real life happens. Different opinions, different personalities, social media, church, school, friendships—how do we actually live united in a divided world?

In this seminar, we'll explore Jesus' prayer for His followers in John 17 and discover what true, everyday unity looks like. Learn how to love well, disagree graciously, and reflect Jesus in your relationships, so that the world can see the difference He makes.

Challenge time: Impossible Faith (workshop & games)
Monday August 10, 2026 3:15pm - 4:00pm BST
The Clubhouse
Ever used the phrase, “that’s impossible” or said, “I could never do that”? At some point, we’ve all felt out of our depth - we might have even said that sometimes our faith feels impossible.
Did you know there are places in the world where being a Christian is seemingly impossible; millions of Christians face terrible persecution just for believing in Jesus. But, with God, all things are possible, and the church remains alive, active, and in some places, is even growing.
Join us and try to complete a series of impossible challenges and get inspired by the incredible stories of Christians like Zaid*, Brother Andrew, and Mama Kwama, who, in choosing to follow Jesus, have seen God do impossible and amazing things!

You'll find us in the little rooms at the back left of the main arena (as you're facing the stage). They have glass windows/walls so you'll be able to see what's going on in the arena.

This is a small (hosted) breakout space where you can come and have some quiet if the arena feels too overstimulating. All young people must be dropped off by a youth leader and it’s fine to use it as a drop in and out space or stay for the whole time. We also have some ear defenders which can be borrowed if you’ve left yours at the tent. There'll be sensory lighting, fidget toys and some beanbags.

Please note:
- this is a space for young people, unfortunately we’re not able to accommodate youth leaders due to space. 
- this is a sensory space for young people who might need support. If you want a space to chill, stretch out, be around less people or slightly less noise - please use Relay.

There'll also be writing, drawing, journaling, colouring supplies for you to use whilst you engage with the session.
