We felt very honoured to be part of this important project. Our ThisLife Girls played an integral part in writing this powerful speech delivered by @NorthumbriaOPCC on the 30th of November.
Thanks to @workietickettheatre for involving us!
Huge thank you to our Byker well-being group who have helped us pack and distribute over 65 food bags to local residents this week.
We are so grateful to have been given this funding from @lga_foundation as part of their 12 days of Christmas campaign π πΌππ€ΆπΌππΌ
Such a brilliant afternoon celebrating the absolutely outstanding art work our Byker Futures youth group have created! This project has been so good for the young people, being able to express themselves and how they feel about their area has given them a huge sense of pride!
A huge thanks to @KarbonHomes for supporting/funding the project and for pulling together the brilliant celebration today it was so lovely for the young people to be treated like celebrities, being papped and interviewed about their work, they loved every minute!
This project has been led by @MarkOne87 as part of Elements Street Art Festival. Mark has worked with the group teaching them new skills and techniques and has been amazing with the group really helping bring their ideas to life.
It's great that @BigIssue have taken the time to shine a light on the very real barriers some of our young people deal with every day.
We hope that honest conversations like this will help bring new opportunities to help make their lives easier!

Thereβs a buzz around Byker.
Is it from electing a @TheGreenParty councillor? Iβm biased on that.
Is it @TheGroveNCL bringing great music?
Is it @FoundFutureNE & Byker Mutual Aid helping to support and connect?
All the above.

This is world mental health day we will be running workshops with all of our groups, reminding them that it is ok to not be ok and encouraging everyone to speak up when things are feeling tough not just today but everyday. Always remember you are not alone π
If you can, please consider sponsoring them. Your support would mean the world to us and the young people we serve. Thank you!

We are immensely grateful to have such dedicated supporters.
As a small charity, every single penny raised will go directly towards helping young people, providing them with positive experiences, and guiding them toward a brighter future.
Last week we took our Byker Futures youth group on a residential trip, this year to the Lake District! We had such an amazing time and are so proud of all of the young people who attended, pushing themselves outside of their comfort zones and creating memories to last a lifetime!
We are delighted to share that we have received #NationalLottery funding from @TNLComFund for our project for the next 3 years!
Thank you to National Lottery players for helping #MakeAmazingHappen.
