Creative times at group, creating together chatting & laughing together . We try to create spaces where women can come as they are to chat, eat, get support if needed. Women have told us it’s important to have space just for them to be away from the normal hostel life sometimes.

🗣 "It's about the early intervention we can offer young people and the community."

✅Absolutely correct Darren! It's very impactful hearing how young people living in Walton feel about the recent riots and to see, first hand, how they are helping the recovery effort.

We are proud to be funding amazing initiatives like @WaltonYP through our YES Fund, so we can offer better access to new & safe opportunities for young people living in some of our more deprived areas. 👏
