What Do We Do?

Benefits advice (16-25)

We can assist you in understanding benefits and help guide you through claiming benefits online.

Staff are trained in giving young people sexual health advice, the distribution of condoms, pregnancy tests and much more.

Food parcels and showering facilities (16-25)

There is access to a shower room for people who are street homeless or who do not have access to water and electricity. We can give out toiletries and food parcels for those who are in need.
