Young People Service

The Young People Service helps young adults to deal with challenging life experiences and helps them to learn how to live healthy independent lives.  We offer activities and events that enable young adults to feel connected, protected, uplifted and part of a community.

The programme delivers a range of weekly activities and quarterly events to educate, include, and inspire young people.

  • Individual counselling.
  • Support groups dealing with topics such as mental health, self-esteem, and goal setting.
  • Mindfulness techniques including yoga, meditation, and conscious use of social media to preserve mental and emotional wellbeing.
  • Therapeutic art activities.
  • Sports and physical activities.
  • Healthy Living and Nutrition.
  • Education, Training and Employment.
  • Support and advocacy with welfare benefits and debt issues.

We want to provide an opportunity for young adults to connect with each other, and work together, to improve their lives both mentally and emotionally. We aim to help young people find their own unique voice and feel empowered to live independent, confident, and fulfilling lives.

Through the programme we strive to teach new life skills, reduce disconnection and loneliness, build confidence and resilience, improve employment potential, and most importantly help young people look forward to the rest of their lives.
