Company

Youth Concern is celebrating its 40th year as a charity supporting vulnerable young people aged 13-25 years old, in Aylesbury Vale. Its core services include: a Drop-in Centre, counselling provision, an emergency accommodation scheme called Aylesbury Nightstop and a Multi-Media studio.

Youth Concern’s vision is that every young person has the resources they need to live a happy, healthy and fulfilling life. Our purpose is to be there for and respond to vulnerable young people when they need us most – at each contact we work to transform lives.

Our mission is to enable young people from diverse backgrounds to broaden their opportunities, realise their aspirations and optimise their well-being. We achieve this through the delivery of bespoke, holistic support packages helping them overcome disadvantage and reduce risk whilst facilitating the transition to independent adulthood.

This is an exciting and challenging time in the charity’s evolution as we look to expand our service this year, to meet increasing need. Specifically, we are planning to launch the Next Step; a supported accommodation project for young people experiencing homelessness aged 18-25yrs old.
