We are an independent local charity that works for and with children, young people and their families delivering high quality children’s and youth work programmes. We provide a safe and welcoming space and positive activities supporting participants so they can belong, contribute and thrive in their communities. We have been an active part of our community since 1857 and have an established reputation as a deliverer of youth services.
We provide affordable, quality facility hire for other charities, organisations and local groups, including a community hall, training room and a sports hall. We also support those who are homeless and vulnerable through guidance and referral, shower and laundry facilities.
