OUR VISION

WE WILL PROVIDE GREAT PLACES TO GO, POSITIVE THINGS TO DO, AND PEOPLE THAT CARE.

+ ON A MISSION.

Since 1889, BLGC has been a cornerstone of the Bolton community, providing a safe, welcoming space for thousands of children and young people every year. We offer Universal Services that are open to all, filled with activities that help kids grow and thrive. For those who need a bit more support, our Targeted Services are there to help them overcome challenges and succeed.

In the past decade, we’ve grown a lot, always adapting to what our community needs. And we’re not stopping! We have big plans to reach even more young people with our life-changing programs. We believe in the potential of every young person and are dedicated to helping them build resilience, explore their strengths, and achieve their dreams. Come join us in creating a brighter future for the next generation in Bolton and beyond!
