Over the many years of mentoring we have observed that young people have specific problems and challenges that can distinctively relate to their transition from childhood to adulthood. However, in our rapidly changing time there are additional issues that we have not seen or experienced before as adults that young people are having to deal with like online bullying, anxiety, stress, exams, higher rates of low self-image, long-term unemployment, racism, family fractures, low self-confidence, victims of youth violence, loneliness, sexuality, identity, standards of beauty, and constant Peer Pressure to be less than you are. Most importantly, and sadly they feel so disenfranchised from society and disconnected from adults who they feel are not invested in their future. Plus much more. These issues are not just UK wide but globally. 

The teenage years are a wonderful stage of life so we encourage young people to focus on the good and then we support and elevate them to speak out about their issues and then feel comfortable to seek out the professional help. We are a youth resource for them to face a problem and move forward to creating a better a happier foundation for their lives.  The greatest part of our work is to make sure that they have a platform of support, encouragement and that we have a stake in their future because they are the future. We are working on building a sustainable and creative network of young people to provide experiences, materials and apprenticeships to build their CV’s, work experience and life.
