Youth Focus North East: Positive Gateshead

Youth Focus North East

Youth Focus North East (YFNE) are delivering open access youth provision in three areas of Gateshead (Wrekenton, Springwell and Rowlands Gill). We offer a safe and fun space for young people aged 10 to 18 (up to 25) to develop friendships and life skills in an informal educational manner. We deliver themed interventions around the personal challenges young people face, including; deprivation, employability, risk taking behaviour and improving their mental wellbeing and physical activity. Through this, we encourage them to be champions of these areas which will allow them to support their peers new and old.  

We offer workshops and activities as part of the informal education element of our work. We have previously delivered workshops on the issues of vaping, issues of racism, bullying, money management and we will invite guests to showcase different cultures and experiences to increase the young people's own knowledge, raise their aspirations to reach their full potential, allowing them to better themselves for their future.
