ABOUT US

We are an independent, non-profit charity dedicated to supporting young people across Bath, Somerset and beyond. We provide a wide range of opportunities for 11–25-year-olds, offering both universal and targeted support to help them thrive – whether that’s through youth work, 1:1 mentoring, careers advice or bespoke educational provision.
 

Our services are as varied as the young people we support. Alongside open-access youth spaces like our Bath City Centre Youth Space, Radstock Youth Hub and Southside Youth Centre, we deliver dynamic Alternative Education programmes for those who are unable to access mainstream education. These flexible and person-centred courses offer a vital route back into learning for young people experiencing anxiety, mental health challenges, disrupted schooling, or a loss of confidence in traditional education.
 

How do we achieve this?

​

  • First and foremost, we prioritise the safety and well-being of young people. They are at the heart of everything we do, ensuring their best interests are protected at all times.

  • Collaboration is key to our success. We work closely with families, communities, and other stakeholders to create positive change and enhance opportunities for young people.

  • We go above and beyond to meet and exceed expectations, always striving to provide exceptional support. We believe in going "the extra mile" to make a real difference in the lives of young people.

  • Inclusivity is a fundamental value we hold dear. We are here for those who need us, ensuring that all young people have access to the support and resources they deserve.

  • With determination and creativity, we lead by example. We encourage young people to embrace new experiences, constantly learn, and never give up on their dreams.

 

We believe every young person deserves the chance to discover their strengths, pursue their goals and be part of something bigger.
