Youth

Kingston Youth Centre houses a variety of facilities such as a kitchen, sports hall, art room, music studio, outdoor garden area and social areas that can be used for group work and one to one. Youth workers work with young people aged 10 – 24 years, focussing on 11 – 18 age range.

The programme offers a wide range of opportunities for young people that encourage personal and social development, through trying new activities and meeting others. Targeted focussed group work and one to one sessions, work with young people to identify issues and explore solutions, building resilience and self confidence.

There are also sessions that are purely focussed around young people with identified disabilities and additional needs.
