Youth Matters
Youth Matters is our cross-community youth programme supporting young people aged 8–18 to build confidence, friendships, and resilience.
Who it’s for
Young people (ages 8–18) who want a welcoming place to learn, grow, and make friends. We work closely with families and local schools.
Weekdays
After-schools
Friendly staff support homework, activities, and positive routines after the school day.
Evenings
Youth Club
Games, music, creative projects, and a safe space to spend time with friends.
Leadership
Skills & Leadership
Opportunities to develop communication, teamwork, and real-world leadership skills.
Relationships
Building Relationships
We create a safe, inclusive environment where young people form strong, respectful relationships across communities — breaking down barriers and building lasting friendships.
Wellbeing
Mental Health & Wellbeing
We recognise the challenges young people face around mental health. Our team provides support through mentoring, group work, and open conversation so every young person feels heard and valued.
Personal Development
Making Positive Choices
Through informal education and discussion, we support young people to explore the issues that affect their lives and make informed, confident decisions about their future.
