As HideOut is a charity, we can only continue to offer this service through financial support, which comes from our Founder Patrons, charitable donations, support from the local council, and through young people memberships. It’s important for our members to renew their membership: your £5 keeps HideOut going, and even better… it makes HideOut yours.  

If you can’t remember when you became a HideOut member, simply ask at reception when you come in on session. Our team is on hand to help. Please refrain from calling HideOut for this information. 

In 2021, HideOut made the decision to automatically renew all memberships. This decision was made because we opened mid-pandemic, and we were unable to offer our members the complete HideOut experience for the year (due to things like bubbles and restricted access). We believe it was only fair.

Now all Covid-19 restrictions have been removed, we can offer the full HideOut experience to all our members. As HideOut is a charity, we can only continue to offer this service through financial support, which comes from our Founder Patrons, charitable donations, support from the local council, and through young people memberships.

We understand that some members haven’t been to HideOut in a while, and are unsure about continuing membership with us. But we want to let you know that there have been some changes to the way we work that you might not be aware of… for example, maybe you found it difficult to come to a session due to the booking system we had in place due to Covid-19? We no longer have that in place! This means you can just turn up to a session and enjoy the fun.  

it is vital that HideOut has the most up-to-date information for you. When you come onto session, please let the reception team know that you have changes that you need to update. Changes we need to be aware of include:

– any changes in your information (like if you changed schools (primary – to high school)

– if you/your parent’s contact details have changed (phone number/address)

We understand that the cost of living is causing struggles for more and more people.

That’s why we are offering a one month grace period for renewals. If you do not pay £5 after the month since your renewal date, you will no longer be able to access HideOut.

If you are struggling financially, please talk to a member of staff who will discuss options with you.
