Mission Statement
Carmarthen Youth Project aims to promote the best interest of young people aged between 11 and 25 from Carmarthen and the surrounding rural areas. This is achieved by: - • Providing a safe, educational, informal and stimulating leisure environment for young people to meet and interact. • Assisting young people to develop their physical, mental, emotional and spiritual capacities. • Aiming to empower young people to become mature and fully integrated members of society.
About This Cause
We are a full-time youth project and charity providing a safe and stimulating place for, mostly disadvantaged, young people to meet and interact, gain skills through new opportunities and activities and participate in and feel valued by their community. We were set up by a group of young people and active community members as there was nothing for young people to do in the town. Our Projects include a Grow it Cook It Transform it Project teaching young people to grow and cook food and improve their community through environmental projects. Our Life Skills and Resilience is about encouraging and giving young people opportunities to volunteer in the community and learn skills and earn time credits. We have a Health and Well-being Project supporting young people with their physical and emotional health. An LGBTQ Youth group supporting these young people to feel less marginalised and more included. Our Transitionz Project is a mini club for 8-11 year olds to experience youth club and gain confidence in readiness for High School. Our Little M'z Parent and Toddler group gives support and opportunities for disadvantaged, young parents to meet up and get support. Finally, our Digital Youth Project develops projects that support and develop young people's digital skills for future employment and fun. We also provide summer holiday programme, a cafe and a community garden at our purpose designed centre all for young people.
