The best way to experience Design Club is to dive in and do it!

We're still in the early stages of growing our after school clubs network but if there's a club running near you, there's a good chance you can support them.

Supporting another mentor with their club is a great way to find out how it feels to work with Design Club resources, and with children, without the responsibility of managing a club yourself.

Let other mentors know you're available and willing to help out. Here's how to get involved:

  1. Subscribe to our

  2. Follow us on social media (, , and )

  3. Join our

  4. to join our Slack

  5. to join our WhatsApp group for weekend mentors

These are the best ways to keep in touch and connect with other mentors. Let us know how you get on :)
