HORIZON

 HORIZON aims to bring the community together, ensuring those most in need are able to access support during difficult times. This includes face-to-face emotional support, a food larder service, both mobile and centre based delivery and digital support. 

A Food Larder session and a free drop-in café  runs each Thursday from 10.30am to 12.30pm.

If you require outreach service please contact us so we can ensure correct measures are put in place.

 FUSION 

Funded by Children in Need, FUSION is for the benefit of children between the ages of thirteen and sixteen.

Young males meet each Monday between 3.30pm and 5.30pm.Young females meet each Tuesday between 3.30pm and 5.30pm.In each session, one-to-one work is available and arranged as needed.

Further activities include team building trips with mixed group members - the focus of which will be on boundaries, team work and communication.

Aims of the project will work towards improving resilience, reduce exploitive behaviour and promote confidence and empowerment. Sessions focus on young people being able to access support, make safe decisions and to respect their own needs. Online safety, offending behaviours, running away, target groups and new relationships are also covered.

There will also be workshops including "push, pull and control factors", exploitation, how to stay safe and how to report troubling issues, with opportunities to work with different organisations. Guest speakers will be invited to conduct workshops.

This project will enable young people to understand each other and communicate effectively.

SEN SUPPORT SQUAD

The SEN SUPPORT SQUAD offers a Parents Café providing support and information to parents or carers of children who have autism or other additional needs. Evidence of a formal diagnosis is NOT required.

The session runs every Monday morning from 9.30am to 11.30am, and provides a space where you can come along to share or start your journey, find out more information or invite speakers on topics that are important to you.

Being a parent or carer to a child with ASD/ADHD or any additional needs can be isolating, but it doesn't have to be. Equally many children can struggle with their emotions and get overwhelmed.

There are many benefits to coming along such as realising that you are not alone, sharing your thoughts, frustrations and ideas, and learning how to cope. Hear how others are doing and share feelings with people who understand, whilst providing suggestions and being a part of something positive. 

TYLA PROJECT

The TYLA project stands for Turn your life around, and one to one sessions are delivered each Tuesday morning between 9.30am and 11.30am. Group sessions also take place each Thursday from 3.00pm to 5.00pm.

Youth work sessions focus on positive activities including global cuisine (competitive cooking sessions using foods from around the world). There are other team games and workshops.

Sessions also include activities based on areas of interest from young people such as football nights, netball and dance. In addition, we offer arts and crafts alongside specific sensory activities. 

We arrange, for example, visits to local fire stations and police stations, where young people can feel inspired and gain a better understanding of job roles and learn about trusting adults.

The aim of this project is to help young people develop confidence and self worth, improving their personal and social skills. We would hope to raise aspirations alongside reducing the risk of anti social behaviour - particularly for those already involved in it.
