About us
Who we are
We listen, we talk, and we help young people with the skills they need to live their best life. And we work with families and professionals to make sure everyone gets the support they need.
Growing up in today’s world can be incredibly challenging – It’s why we listen to young people, they understand better than anyone what’s happening in their own lives.
Understanding and giving support for challenges early can often stop problems from becoming much bigger – and we believe every child deserves to feel safe and heard.
Our culture and values
Our work is driven by our core beliefs:
Growing up in today’s world can be incredibly challenging.
Every young person deserves to feel safe.
Prevention and early intervention often stop problems from becoming much bigger.
We should listen to young people. They understand better than anyone what’s happening in their own lives.
Schools, parents and carers sometimes need help to support young people.
Our work changes lives. We’re helping children and young people to gain the confidence and the skills they need to thrive.
Everything we do is guided by our values:
We elevate and amplify the voices of children & young people.
The needs of young people guide everything we do, shaping every decision and action we take.
We act with compassion.
We empathise with the pressures of modern life and feel compelled to help without judgement.
We work together.
Partnering with parents, carers, schools, policymakers, and young people themselves helps us all to succeed.
We take responsibility.
We recognise our part to play in the future of children & young people, and we hold ourselves accountable for their success.
