Interested in youth work in your area?
We believe every young person should have the opportunity to access a safe place with adults they respect and trust and where they can develop their emotional and social skills. Our weekly youth work sessions provide just that, and we would love to be able to offer this in more communities.
- Funding for youth services has dropped by 71% since 2010
- Since 2011 the number of open youth clubs has halved across the UK
- Youth clubs provide a safety net for young people helping them to explore issues that left unaddressed can lead to long-term consequences
- Young people deserve the right support and opportunities to help them fully realise their potential
