Many people, particularly women, lack confidence and self-esteem for a vast range of reasons, and this can have a major impact on their lives.

The Young Women's Project offers empowering learning opportunities where skills can be developed and built upon, enabling young women to value themselves and make confident decisions about their lives.

The workers offer support to help the women take full control of their lives and to take an active part in their community. Thus ensuring that provision mirrors the ethos and practice outlined in 'Aiming High for Young People' the Government's 10 year strategy for young people.

Broadly speaking, the Project:
• provides quality work with groups and individuals
• promotes work with young women
• provides accessible training for young women and workers
• promotes family learning through empowering learning opportunities
• offers one-to-one support, information and guidance
• networks, and works in partnership with other agencies and organisations to provide 'joined-up' services
• shares ideas, resources and work methods
• addresses issues that affect young women
• advocates on behalf of young women
• supportively 'signposts' young women to other services when appropriate
• and much more
