Supporting young people in Cambridgeshire with their practical issues and emotional needs since 1981.
About us
Too many young people tell us they have no-one to talk to. At Centre 33, we are here to listen and to help. We are a young people’s charity, working across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough, specialising in supporting young people of secondary age up to the age of 25. Centre 33 was established in 1981 and still holds true to its founding principles of: - young person centred - services that are available to all young people on a self-referral basis - capable of responding to complex need - quality and good outcomes for young people. Our current values commit to being: inclusive and specialist, supportive and non-judgemental, collaborative and accountable. Our vision is that every young person is listened to and respected for who they are; and that they receive the support to enable them to be who they want to be. In order to do this, our mission is to support young people with their practical and emotional needs. We do this through delivery of safe, free, accessible and professional services that listen to, support and inspire young people to become who they want to be. We feel it is important to support young people with their presenting needs. The majority of the work we do supports young people to: • Be emotionally healthy • Be sexual healthy • Be safely housed • Be in employment / meaningful education/training • Have improved financial situations • Reduce the negative impact of their caring responsibilities (if they are young carers) We have five main hubs (Cambridge, Ely, Wisbech, Peterborough, Huntingdon) but also work within the community including local schools and community venues (such as libraries, GP surgeries etc.).

Young carers and young adult carers tell us that they are often unaware of available support services for their emotional health needs. ❤️🩹 Once they are aware they find accessing this support challenging due to their caring roles. We also found that young carers and young adult carers want their own physical health needs to be supported and want opportunities to stay physically well via exercise and healthy eating. 🏃♂️🏀 This #CarersWeek we want to amplify the voices of young carers and share what they are telling us they need to live fulfilling lives. Collaboration among stakeholders is CRUCIAL for the effective implementation of these recommendations, leading to a more supportive environment for young carers and young adult carers, promoting resilience 💪, and enhancing overall wellbeing. 😌 Learn more from our Young Carers Voices Survey results: https://lnkd.in/e8pxHrWK

Back in December we conducted The Young Carers Voices Survey to offer insights into the needs of young carers and young adult carers in Cambridgeshire & Peterborough. ���� ➡️ Young carers and young adult carers tell us that they are often unaware of available support services for their emotional health needs. ❤️🩹 Once they are aware they find accessing this support challenging due to their caring roles. ➡️ Young carers and young adult carers also tell us that more support groups are needed to strengthen social connections among young carers. 🧍🧍♀️🧍♂️ This #CarersWeek we want to amplify the voices of young carers and share what they are telling us they need to live fulfilling lives. Collaboration among stakeholders is CRUCIAL for the effective implementation of these recommendations, leading to a more supportive environment for young carers and young adult carers, promoting resilience 💪, and enhancing overall wellbeing. 😌 At Centre 33 we put young people’s voices at the centre. We want to know what they think, and we want them to feel heard.

Centre 33 Cambridgeshire and Peterborough reposted this
Last year Cambridge City Foodbank provided nearly 16,000 emergency food parcels. This is the greatest need we have ever seen, and it's not slowing down. More and more people are being forced to turn to a food bank to meet their basic needs, because our social security system is not fit for purpose, work isn't paying, and debt is trapping people in poverty. That's why we are inviting candidates standing to be MP for Cambridge to join us for a hustings focussed on what they will do to tackle the causes of poverty. I'm pleased that we are running this event with Jimmy's Cambridge, YMCA Trinity Group, It Takes a City (Cambridge), and Centre 33 Cambridgeshire and Peterborough, who each do incredible work supporting people through hardship. All are welcome to join us. More info and registration form ➡ https://lnkd.in/eajwKgSH Can't make it?
