BRIDGE FOR YOUNG PEOPLE
Families, children and young people
Bridge for Young People provide accommodation and support to care leavers and homeless aged 16-25.
We surround young people with support and offer a safe, comfortable home. Formally Young People and Children First, we are now known as 'Bridge for Young People' reflecting our work to bridge the critical gap from foster care to independence.
Most young people we support have spent time in care as children, often in multiple foster care placements or stays in children's homes. We also support 16-25 year olds who are homeless, frequently due to a family breakdown.
Since we opened our doors we now have three lovely homes, each provide housing for three to six young people along with a live-in adult who provides security, company and practical support. We also have seven independent flatlets, which provide an extra stepping stone to independent living.
There is high demand for our service and we have plans to offer more support and housing to young people. We are working on our next project with plans to open additional accommodation in the near future.
We are looking for responsible and trustworthy people, over 18 years of age, who can help with a range of activities in the next stages of our charity’s growth and development.
We need motivated, enthusiastic and competent community event helpers to join our fun and dedicated team of volunteers who manage our events for us, raising awareness of our charity and helping to raise all-important funds. Please note that these events are mainly held at the weekend.
