Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I have worked as a volunteer counsellor at the YPC for over two years. During this time I have witnessed with my own eyes how the YPC has helped, supported and changed the lives of many young people. I feel honoured to have been given the opportunity to work with many young people at the YPC and I have learnt so much during my time there.
The YPC support young people aged 13 - 25 years with support, advice and information on a number of issues including homelessness, sexual health, mental health, employment, education and relationships.
The sessions which are run all by volunteers, offer a safe space for young people to come and eat affordable food whilst having the opportunity to speak to someone, or just have somewhere warm and dry to go. The centre also supports young people with cooking lessons, cv support and a variety of workshops which help young people to achieve and move on in their lives.
A big part of the service is also the free counselling which is always running with a waiting list due to the demand. To give an idea of how much services cost, one session of counselling cost £30 to deliver, which is offered to young people for free!
