Streetwise East Outreach and Youth Hub @ Byker

The Streetwise Project Workers offer young people who attend the Hub a chance to have their say.  

Each week, they will ask those who attend to choose what they would like to eat. The young people then shop for healthy ingredients.  After that they prepare the food to cook for themselves and their peers. 

There are also engaging and fun activities including board games and a Playstation 5.

The young people that attend also have access to information, advice and guidance around topics that regularly affect them.  The information and guidance is about the following subjects:

• friendships, 
• relationships, 
• sexual health, 
• mental health,
• exam stress, 
• CV writing and so much more. 

 This is a warm, caring and kind place to be because:

• we have a quiet/calm space for young people to chill out in,
• we offer small group work and activities, 
• we offer peer support (buddy/mentoring system)
• parents/carers are welcome to have a pre-visit and to discuss individual needs prior to the activities

• we have very experienced coaches who will cater for the needs of the individuals.
