Beryl has made her decision. Her first workshop will be about spoon theory.

We did briefly wonder whether this was an elaborate attempt to get closer to the cutlery drawer, but apparently she has a lesson plan.

Spoon theory is a way of explaining the energy we have available, what uses it up and why some days even the little things can feel like a lot.

Come along and explore what drains your energy, what helps you recharge and how to make a little more room for breaks and support.

Monday 2 November
3.30–4.30pm
At the DHYP Hub

Please indulge her by coming along. She’s already appointed a human minion to help, so this has clearly gone further than we expected.

Beryl may leave if she gets bored or receives a better offer. Her human assistant will stay and finish the session. Standards must be maintained somewhere.

🎃 Halloween at DHYP! 🎃

A huge well done to our amazing young people who got involved in pumpkin carving this week! 👏

The creativity, effort and imagination they put into their designs was fantastic to see, with some brilliant spooky creations! 👻

We're incredibly proud of everyone who took part and made the session such a success. Well done all! 🎃🧡

💜🎉 Today is a very special day as we celebrate Steph's retirement after more than 11 incredible years with DHYP. 🎉💜

Steph joined DHYP as a Supported Lodgings Support Worker and, whilst working here, we learnt she had her counselling qualification and she went on to establish our Wellbeing Service. 🌱💜

What started as an idea has grown into a vital service that continues to support young people with their mental health as they navigate housing stability, overcome challenges, and build brighter futures.

The impact Steph has had on DHYP and the young people we support cannot be overstated. Through her compassion, dedication, and unwavering commitment, she has helped countless young people through some of the most difficult times in their lives. ❤️

She leaves behind an incredible legacy, one that will continue to make a difference for many years to come. 🌟 While we will miss her greatly, we are so grateful for everything she has given to DHYP, our team, and the young people we support. 🤗

The young people will certainly miss her, and so will we, but thankfully a little birdie has told us this isn't quite goodbye yet... 🐦✨ Steph has kindly offered to volunteer with us in the future, so we're hoping we'll still get to see her friendly face around DHYP from time to time. 😊

Please join us in thanking Steph for her amazing contribution and wishing her a long, happy, healthy, and well-deserved retirement. 🎊🥂🌷

Thank you, Steph. Your legacy will live on at DHYP. 💜

Lisa and her family had a fabulous time at Tickhill Methodist Church last Saturday 🎶 for an Afternoon of Folk Music! 🎶

We're incredibly grateful that 50% of all funds raised will be donated to DHYP, helping us continue to support young people across Doncaster who are homeless or at risk of homelessness.

Thank you to everyone at Tickhill Methodist Church for choosing to support DHYP. 💜

A reminder that art is on tomorrow, with guest host Nicki! 1–3pm, usual place.

Clare is seething that she’s missing this one.

The awesome very kindly donated his Amazon voucher raffle win to the young people, and Clare decided the best use of it was to immediately purchase heavy duty metal pumpkin punch cutters and a couple of lump hammers.

Erm… thanks, Nathan.

Traditional carving sets and paint will also be available, so come and violate our supplied pumpkins in whichever way you fancy!

No need to bring anything except yourself and, as always, open to all 16-25 and completely free.

Aprons and gloves provided. First aid kit also standing by.

Lights, camera… what do I do with my hands? 🎬

A while ago, we were lucky enough to win a free promotional filming from Odept Films —and today’s the day!

We’re filming around Doncaster and in the DHYP office, so if you spot us, come and say hi.
We’ll be the ones trying to look natural while suddenly forgetting how to walk normally.

Huge thanks to Tom at Odept Films for this opportunity, everyone who voted for us, and our staff and young people who’ve bravely agreed to face the camera and help tell DHYP’s story.

We can’t wait to share the finished material.
The bloopers may need to stay in the office.

FREE — everyone aged 16–25 welcome!

Come along and get creative 👻
