We believe in the importance of a support network of people who understand.

A group ran by North Benwell Youth Project. NBYP wish to see the young people of North Benwell enjoy the same possibilities of life as their peers in other areas of Newcastle upon Tyne: the young people of North Benwell will generate their own hope for the future and be the agents of their own destinies.

These sessions are led and coordinated by Gem Arts and funded through Youth Music, to support local organisations to offer structured high quality music sessions to young  people delivered by professional musicians.

During group clubs, there are opportunities to

• explore life and relationship issues 
• practise life-skills such as planning and organising in a safe environment, 
• building self esteem and confidence.

Please ring before attending. 

The Mums group currently meet every Thursday afternoon and has been running for over 4 years now.

It is a relaxed space where young women can meet with or without their children. They can have a coffee and chat, share information and advice, support each other when life seems tough, which can help to reduce feelings of isolation. Importantly the group always manage to have a laugh together.

RISE is part of the Newcastle Gateshead CCG, NHS and DFE Mental Health in Schools programme. We work in schools and colleges and support young people with moderate mental health needs. This could mean working directly with individual students, running group sessions, or helping teachers shape lesson plans or assemblies.

At RISE, we offer low intensity support for children and young people coping with mild to moderate mental health needs. Our Education Mental Health Practitioners will tailor sessions based on young person needs but themes may include:

The Sanctum service consists of safe accommodation for men and women who have experienced domestic abuse and who cannot access mainstream services of refuge for multiple reasons (e.g. if they have drug or alcohol issues, pets, older children etc).

Services include Domestic Abuse Flexible Support (DAFS), flexible and structured support for women affected by domestic abuse to achieve and maintain safety and independence, and the Freedom Programme, an 12 week group programme enabling women to recognise the signs of domestic abuse and explore its impact so the process of recovery can begin.

You can access the Helpline if you have been affected by domestic abuse or if you are worried about someone you know.
