What we can offer you
RYDE program
The City has launched its Regional Youth Driver Education (RYDE) program.
RYDE helps young people (16-25) in the northern corridor take significant steps towards obtaining their driver’s licence, connecting them with trained volunteer driver mentors to complete the required 50 hours of supervised driving experience.
Available seven days a week, the program operates from Joondalup Library with an easy-to-use online booking platform and an affordable fee of $15 for a 90-minute driving session.
Those keen to sign up for Joondalup RYDE can click here.
Prospective volunteer mentors can express their interest by emailing ryde@joondalup.wa.gov.au
MA15+ DROP IN
MA15+ is a drop-in program for young people ages 15-25 to hang out, meet new people, and take part in a variety of recreational activities and workshops each week.
Young people have free choice in activities they choose to engage in, and have access to youth workers in a safe and inclusive space.
