Nomad Youth & Community Project is an active local charity based in Henley on Thames on the border with Berkshire and Buckinghamshire that supports children, young people and families at grassroots level. We provide support for those facing challenging situations in their lives and seek to work collaboratively with other organisations and agencies through delivering positive and individually tailored programmes of support. Interventions are delivered through four keys areas:
*Schools Programme, *After School & Holiday Programme, *Family Support Programme and *Community Programme which includes the Food Bank
Known for being a picturesque market town famous for its regatta, Henley is one of the more expensive places to live in England, so questions are often asked about the need for such a project?
The wealth of the area easily masks the needs leaving many feeling isolated, lonely, and unheard. Nomad endeavours to make a difference through:
Valuing people, loving, and accepting them
Creating a safe nurturing environment
Working together with integrity
Putting others first
Showing appreciation
Encouraging people
One young person says: “Honestly I couldn’t put into words how grateful I am to have received support from NOMAD. Such lovely, caring and considerate people”.
One mother on receiving a food parcel says “Thank you. The girls get very excited when we receive your food parcel. Really appreciate it and very grateful”.
