Over the past few years, we’ve grown to a staff of 100+ talented individuals dispersed around the world. At THL, how animals are treated in the food system is at the forefront of our everyday work. As such, many of our staff are vegan by personal choice, and all of our THL-hosted events offer fully vegan menus.

Catch22 exists to help build a society where everyone has a good place to live, good people around them, and a fulfilling purpose. We call these our '3Ps'. 

We achieve this in two ways. First, we improve lives on the frontline through delivery of public services.

We often meet young people at a moment of change and work with them to find a positive way forward.

We provide long-term, holistic support. We consider every aspect of a young person’s life and build support around them.

The Counsellor will work as part  of the youth work team within the Youth Violence Intervention Programme delivered in Birmingham health care settings. The Redthread Counsellor will provide therapeutic support to young people aged 11-25 years old, who have been referred to and worked with the Redthread service. They will provide therapeutic interventions to young people who have been victims of or impacted by violence and provide a in house counselling service for young people working with Redthread.
