This , we're celebrating the difference that youth work makes every day. 💜

At Youth Concern, we know that when young people have a safe place to go and trusted adults to turn to, amazing things can happen.

Young people who attend our Drop-in Centre tell us that:

💜 90% feel safe
💜 87.5% feel supported
💜 83.3% feel able to be themselves

These aren't just statistics. They represent young people finding a place where they are welcomed, listened to and accepted for who they are.

Thank you to our dedicated team, volunteers and supporters who help create that sense of belonging every day.

Together, we're helping young people build confidence, overcome challenges and create brighter futures.

A quote from one of our volunteers who help out at our Drop-in Centre.

Our Volunteer Youth Support Workers bring a wealth of knowledge, experience and life skills to Youth Concern, helping young people navigate the challenges they may be facing and supporting them as they work towards a brighter future.

Whether it's offering a listening ear, sharing their experience or simply being there when someone needs support, our volunteers play a really important role in helping young people feel heard and understood.

But the rewards go both ways. Building relationships, seeing young people grow in confidence and knowing they've made a positive difference in someone's life can be just as rewarding for our volunteers. It's a real two-way experience, with everyone learning and gaining something along the way. 💛

Youth work can make a life-changing difference. 💛

Sometimes, it starts with a conversation, someone taking the time to listen or simply having a safe place to go.

At Youth Concern, our team is here for young people every day, offering support, encouragement and opportunities to help them feel more confident and positive about their future.

Whether it's help with housing, mental health, education, employment or just someone to talk to, we're here to listen and help young people find their way forward.

This Youth Work Week, we're celebrating our amazing team and the difference they make in young people's lives.

Because every young person deserves to feel supported, understood and able to believe in their future. 💜

⚡💛 Helping power brighter futures for young people! 💙

A huge thank you to Harmony Energy and the Bumpers Battery Community Fund for supporting Youth Concern!

Energy helps power our communities, and with the right support, young people can find the confidence, stability and opportunities they need to build a brighter future. ✨

Your generosity helps us continue providing a safe, welcoming place where young people aged 13–25 can access counselling, practical advice, essential food and personal-care items, and support with housing and homelessness.

Sometimes, having someone to turn to can make all the difference. Your support helps us be there for young people when they need us most. 💛

Together, we're helping young people discover their potential, overcome challenges and look forward to a brighter future.

Thank you for investing in our young people and helping make a real difference in our local community! 💙

💛 Could you add one extra item to your shopping this Saturday? 💙

We’ll be at Waitrose & Partners - Aylesbury, from 9am to 3pm on Saturday 31st October, collecting donations for Youth Concern’s Youth Foodbank.

Our shelves are running desperately low, and we’d be so grateful for your help! Whether it’s a tin of beans, long-life milk, shampoo or period products, every little donation makes a difference.

Your kindness helps local young people access the essentials they need and reminds them that their community cares about them. 💛

🛒 If you’re shopping at Waitrose on Saturday, please consider picking up an extra item for our young people. Every donation, big or small, is truly appreciated.

Thank you for helping our community support our young people! 💙💛

On International Day of Care and Support, we want to take a moment to highlight some of the problems faced by young carers.

Young carers are much more likely to miss school and education with fewer than half of young carers leaving secondary school with 5 GCSE passes including English and Maths and more than half of young carers unable to get regular breaks from caring. Young carers are also more likely to be bullied and experience mental health conditions like anxiety and depression.

If you're a young carer or a young adult carer, and you need someone to talk to, or a place to relax and be yourself, we're here for you. Visit youthconcern.org.uk to get more support. You don't have to do this alone!

💛 Counselling that works for you.

Every young person is different, and support should reflect that.

At Youth Concern, we want young people with ADHD and autistic young people to feel comfortable, understood and able to be themselves during counselling.

From exploring what your experiences mean to you, to finding strategies that work for your everyday life, we aim to create a supportive space where you can feel at ease and go at your own pace.

Because everyone deserves to feel heard, accepted and supported for who they are.

💛

💛 Everyone deserves to feel heard.

At Youth Concern, our counselling offers young people aged 13–25 a safe space to explore what's going on in their lives, understand their feelings and find a way forward that feels right for them.

Our person-centred approach puts each young person at the heart of their own journey, recognising that everyone is different and that there's no one-size-fits-all approach to support. 💛

Watch our video to find out a little more about what person-centred counselling means.

If you think counselling could help you, we're here for you.
