Community Appeal for Youth Talk’s #NewHomeNewHope

Help us raise £20K to see us in through the front door

We recently shared exciting news that we are moving to a new home on 64 London Road in central St Albans. Our new home is part of our five year strategy for growth. It will give us the space needed to be able to double the amount of counselling sessions we offer and reach more young people every week.

We’re excited to announce that we’ve launched a community appeal to help see us through the front door.

We urgently need you to help raise the final 20K that will allow us to create a safe, welcoming and confidential space for local young people struggling throughout the St Albans District.

Young people are waiting for our help and we need your support.

Will you help give our local young people the gift of a safe place to talk?

Take a tour around 64 London Road – it’s a work in progress, but we hope you agree that the potential is massive.

“I was on a downward spiral without anyone I felt I could talk to – it was starting to impact on my school and home life. Being able to talk to someone openly and confidentially has prevented continual use of unhealthy coping mechanisms. Without Youth Talk I would have found it even harder to get out of the state I was in.”
