What does the Development Service for Young People do?
The Development Service for Young People specialises in Youth Work. This means we help young people to deal with life out in the community. We run and manage Youth Centres and youth clubs – so that young people have safe places to chill out; meet up with their friends and learn about life. We provide opportunities for young people to become involved in all sorts of credible activities and projects – so they can develop the skills knowledge and confidence they will need as adults. We work with other organisations to provide young people with high quality information, guidance and support – especially when things go wrong for them and times get tough. We help young people to become more involved in their communities – and to have a bigger say in what goes on. We even sometimes work with young people out on the streets – so that groups who may not want to use youth centres still get the chance to benefit from all that’s on offer.
