Events for young people
Someklubi for 13-17-year-olds
Who better to market youth activities than young people themselves! That’s why we decided to set up Someklubi. There, young people aged 13–17 can plan and shoot content for Nuorten Rauma’s social media accounts, mainly Instagram. Someklubi meets mainly once a month, and the meeting times are always agreed upon with the group members.
At least one youth worker is always present at the meetings, which last about two hours. The meeting place varies depending on the shooting needs.
The group size is limited to 10 young people. We will accept the first ten applicants who show the enthusiasm we are looking for. The deadline for applications is Sunday, March 1, 2026.
