The Point Blyth Young People’s Centre Northumberland Support and Information and Other services for young people aged 13-25

Groups

At the point we run different groups
depending on what young people say they
want. Some of the groups that we
have run include:

Young Parents Drop-in
Provided chance for young parents to access support/info, with a crèche provided. Parents are supported to run their own group with support from point workers.

Young Mums 2B
Provided support/info to young pregnant women.

Young Men’s Skater Sexual Health Group
A group of young men produced an excellent short film about safe sexual health for young men.

Urban Kicks
This involved a group of young men looking at
issues around mental health and the production of graffiti boards to express their views.

Young People Steering Group
Gives young people opportunity to influence how the project runs. Young people have been involved in recruitment, business planning, presentations and an open day.

Town Centre Regeneration Group
Gave young people a chance to make a film about their views on regenerating the town centre.

Shared beginning
This involved young parents developing a selection of resources including books and posters for other young parents to use with their children.


		If there are any ideas either you or your friends have for a group then give us a ring or call into one of our Drop-in sessions and we’ll see what we can do to help. Watch this space to see what’s happening next…
