Youth AIMS...
...provides Advice and Advocacy, Information, Mediation and Support for those aged 16-25 who are homeless or threatened with homelessness.
How can we help?
We offer a free, confidential drop-in service
based at 36 Crimea Road, Aldershot, near the centre of town. We're here to provide support and advice for anyone aged 16-25 on a whole range of issues relating to accommodation and homelessness. We are here to listen and we really can help you on issues such as:
How does it work?
You can just drop in to our offices at 36 Crimea Road any time between 9.00am and 4.00pm, Mondays to Fridays, or contact us by email or telephone (see below) to make an appointment.
You will be able to talk to a member of the Youth AIMS staff, who are qualified Youth
Workers with a wealth of experience in
offering support, advice and guidance
to young people and dealing with crisis
situations.
You will be able to discuss anything
for which you feel you need support, such as relationships, families, drug
or alcohol use, sexuality, stress, school,
bullying, or other anxieties. The staff will be non-judgemental, non-critical
and fully supportive in trying to
meet your needs
If we don't feel we can meet your needs, you may be referred to another
organisation or group for support or advice.
This is quite normal because we want you
to be able to get the best support we can
find for you.
