Solent Youth Action

There’s no greater feeling than opening the post and receiving a cheque from a funder who sees value in the work you do. HUGE thank you to the @garfieldwestonfoundation, who are kind and generous, and want to support the young people we care care so much about! #community #autism #mentalhealth #love

What an incredible achievement by #poldark and his #pirtates who took on the challenge of scaling the UKs 3 highest peaks in less than 24 hours. They managed to climb and descend all 3 and travel to all locations in 23 hours, 5 minutes. An utterly AWESOME achievement. Thank you to everyone who supported them- emotionally and through sponsorship, and a HUGE thank you to @tom_milczarek @tomrichards8 @eylesy1 @josecarvallo @louisbeattie @ajbacon88 @jakehype @lynchtopher @daniels...trange9 Ben & @rosswalters88 for being AMAZING humans by taking on the challenge and raising funds for us. In August we are taking young people on a residential- giving them the opportunity to have their own adventures, just as Poldark and his Pirates had theirs! #scarfellpike #snowden #bennevis #3peaks #challenge #fundraiser #youth #autism #youngcarers #autismawareness #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #adventure

Here at SYA we work SUPER hard to support vulnerable young people to socialise, gain new experiences and navigate through life. We need funds to do this. On Saturday Ross, our Youth Diversity Officer, and 10 friends are scaling the 3 highest peaks in the UK in under 24 hours to raise some of those vital funds. The 3Peaks challenge is going to be EXHAUSTING, and we are proud, grateful and humbled by team ‘Poldarks Pirates’ for taking on this massive feat. Join their journey by supporting them here: https://www.wonderful.org/…/national3pe akschallenge-776d3679

Our Easter Holiday scheme was SUPER fun! Can’t wait to do it all over again in May Half Term!! 🤗

After such a BEAUTIFUL weekend of weather it’s hard to remember that one day in the Easter holibobs when it rained ALL day. That was the day we went down to the allotment to plant carrots and radishes. 😐🥕💪

Sometimes young people need support to make friends, to feel happy and to contribute to their community. Here at SYA we work SUPER hard to support the most vulnerable young people to engage in positive social activities. We rely HUGELY on the efforts of others to raise funds to support our work. #PoldarksPirates are hiking up 3 big rocks to raise funds for us this June. Be excellent- support their efforts!
