Supporting Young People at the Heart of Our Community

Wilmslow Youth is dedicated to ensuring every young person in our community feels supported, valued, and connected. We provide free support, activities, and safe spaces that help young people navigate the challenges of growing up—whether they’re facing anxiety, low confidence, isolation, or pressures at school or home.

We are proud that we do not charge for our services, ensuring that no young person is ever turned away due to cost. Our work includes:

  • Youth Café & Safe Space: Warm, welcoming environment where young people can relax, talk to trusted adults, socialise, and feel included.

  • Mental Health & Wellbeing Support: One-to-one sessions and small groups that offer a listening ear, encouragement, and practical strategies and counseling.

  • Schools & Community Outreach: Close partnership with local schools, families, and community groups to support young people where they are.

Why Your Support Matters

More young people than ever are seeking help due to rising mental health pressures. Funds raised through the Big Give will help us:

  • Expand 1:1 wellbeing support for young people who need someone to talk to.

  • Increase our after-school drop-in sessions, giving young people a safe place to go.

  • Extend our youth club provision into the evening, offering even more safe, positive, and supportive opportunities for young people to connect.

  • Deliver community-based programmes that build friendships, confidence, and belonging.

  • Keep all our services free, accessible, and available to every young person who needs us.

A Chance to Make Twice the Difference

“Thanks to the Big Give, every donation, no matter the size, goes twice as far. This is our biggest fundraiser of the year and as a small charity we are so grateful to our community who help make our charity a success and spread a little kindness at this festive time of year. ” said Claire Carter, Community Partnerships Manager at Wilmslow Youth. “This support ensures we can continue being a steady and trusted presence for local young people, a real life line.”
