Entertainment Hi everyone, looking for a bit of advice

My daughter is 17 and wants to get out more this summer, meet new people and make some new friends around Wexford Town. She’s not really into sports, so sports clubs aren’t her thing.

She loves the idea of having a fun, adventurous summer — trying new things, getting involved in activities, events, groups, creative stuff, day trips, volunteering, anything really where she can meet people her age and enjoy herself.

If anyone knows of teen-friendly groups, summer activities, local events, clubs, workshops or good ways for a 17-year-old to connect with others in Wexford Town, I’d really appreciate suggestions

Is she arty/into music? Buí Bolg is always a good shout if so.

Try contact the FDYS! Went there loads as a teen myself many years ago!

Check her local Girl Guides - involves volunteering, creativity, camping and outdoors, cooking, crafts, socializing, cinema trips, just hanging out with girls her age (The Rangers section) https://www.girlguidesireland.ie/find-a-local-unit

There is great art classes in light and shadow studios in Selskar street wexford. They do a few teen groups. Pretty sure they run most of the summer

Hi, I'm not too far away from her age. I'm a 19 year old girl and if she needs some friends then I'll gladly see if we can get along 💕
