The way that we work

Young People have a choice; they can work with us or walk away
Young People can choose to work with us when they want; our door is always open.
We seek out young people to work with and young people seek to work with us.
We work with young people, and not for them!
We work in partnership with voluntary, statutory and private sector services.
Our work can be both local and national.
