Comics Youth

Comics Youth was founded in 2015 and is a creative community organisation led by young people, for young people. Our aim is to empower youth across the Liverpool City Region to flourish from the margins of society: Harnessing their own narratives, finding confidence within an inclusive community, and developing the resilience to succeed on their own path. We're a dedicated, dynamic youth service providing creative opportunities for children and young people aged 8 – 25 across the Liverpool City Region. Though we're primarily based in our fourth floor headquarters on Lord Street, you can also find us in schools, libraries, galleries, youth clubs, and hospitals across the region where we offer a range of creative avenues for young people to discover, share, and amplify their voice. On top of zine creation, reading, and publishing workshops focused on comic books, manga, and zines, we also run youth-led community publishing hubs, and offer volunteer and peer mentoring opportunities as well as AQA Unit Award Scheme programmes. We service all young people across the Liverpool City Region but we focus our resources on young people who may be the most underserved and the most in need. As a result, we're particularly committed to working with those from LGBTQIA, BAME, and working class communities; young people experiencing health challenges or special education needs; young people in care or leaving care; young carers looking after a parent or guardian; young people experiencing abuse; and young people facing bereavement.
