Street Based Work
About Us
We work with young people aged 11-25, wherever they are – street corners, community events, parks and areas where young people are known to socialise. We offer our services across the city and a variety of interventions which include sign posting and referral to organisations that offer specialist and individual support. We also work with other partners to deliver projects and activities in community settings. Youth Workers who work on the street and in spaces young people socialise are identifiable by their Cardiff Council name badges and Youth Work clothing.
We also offer a youth service bus which is our mobile provision that visits many areas of the city. This offers information, support and guidance, as well as projects and activities that are relevant to young people.
