About us
Who we are
We are a local charity based in South East Essex. We work with young people between the ages of 11 and 25, especially those who are disadvantaged because of often-interrelated issues such as learning difficulties, behavioural problems, family issues, poverty, and mental health problems.
We aim to help them by offering a range of services and activities, which focus on young people’s health and wellbeing. The services include one-to-one advice, information and support, Counselling and Mentoring. Small well-being groups for social skills and anxiety. Activities include a performing arts group, a youth club, a youth group for quieter young people, an LGBT club, a young carers club and a sports club. We also work with young people through detached and outreach work and offer educational workshops on substance misuse issues.
Our aim is to enable the young people who use our service to develop the knowledge, life skills and confidence needed to make informed choices and to manage their sometimes very challenging life circumstances. In so doing, helping them achieve their full potential in education, employment, family life and society.
