    We are the only dedicated befriending and mentoring service for children in the North-East and we strive to make a lasting positive impact on the lives of the children we support.

    Our key objectives are to help the youngsters develop confidence, self-esteem, life skills and interests and to help reduce their social isolation.

    Ultimately, we aim to help them realise their potential.

    For the local community, the services we provide are unique and vital.
