Story
National data reports deterioration in the mental health of young people in lockdown. This is particularly linked to increased loneliness and anxiety - problems amplified by the disruption COVID has caused in education and employment alongside rising debts and the very real threat of youth homelessness. Did you know that Oxford has one of the highest rates of death amongst homeless people in the country?
Oxfordshire Youth is a boundary-breaking youth development charity that does whatever it takes to empower young people and provide them with safe spaces to heal from trauma.
We work every day to: prevent youth homelessness and violence, tackle the mental health crisis and create our future leaders. By using a trauma-informed youth work approach, we see the potential in every young people and nurture that.
Lets work together to provide safe and trusted spaces for young people with adverse life experiences to grow, develop and achieve the impossible!
