SUPPORT US
Our youth centres serve as a haven for young people in our community. They provide support, guidance, and a sense of belonging — especially during challenging and uncertain times.
Recent government funding cuts make it increasingly difficult for Berkshire Youth to reach all those in need and provide youth services at the level required - we are reaching out for your support.
Without your help, we won't be able to continue offering the amazing programs and services that so many local young people depend on and we may be forced to close our doors.
WHY DOES THIS MATTER?
​
Young people are facing more challenges than ever. From mental health struggles to the pressures of school, family, and society, the youth in our community need a place to turn—a space where they are seen, heard, and valued. Your support can make that happen.
WHAT DO WE OFFER?
-
Safe space - where young people can discuss their problems, find mentors, and build friendships.
-
Empowerment - Our youth-led strategy enables them to build their confidence and leadership skills.
-
Inspiring Change – good youth work is a catalyst for change and inspires motivation to make good choices in and out of school
-
Creates opportunities – socio-emotional skills are developed throughout the activities we create for young people.
-
Improve well-being – whether that’s mental health, anxiety or problems at home, we aim to lighten the load.
-
Support to communities – local partners and direct provision as appropriate
Without these vital programs, many young people will lose the support system that has helped them cope, thrive, and grow. Last year we were able to support over 52,000 attendances across our youth provision
