About this cause

We are a Youth Project based in the rural ex-mining village of Bowburn Co Durham, we are based in a purpose built youth centre since 1964. The project predominantly works with young people aged 13 - 19 years offering generic and targeted Youth Provision, but we also facilitate community activities for all ages through family fun days and celebration events. Due to the high number of unemployed not only in Bowburn but throughout the entire North East we offer a employability and support session which is where young people who are not in employment, education or training can come and gain access to resources and information to help them gain employment or access courses in college and universities.

How this cause brings people in the community together

The project will help young people by providing them with a fun activities that they may otherwise not have access to during the school holidays, helping to build self esteem and confidence and reducing antisocial behaviour.
