Staying Connected/Staying in touch

During the Covid-19 Pandemic we’re aiming to stay in touch with as many young people as possible.

Ferrywell Youth Project

‘FYP is the place I have stuck with through many years and the people that work in FYP have helped me greatly through family losses, break ups, school and all the problems of being a teenager in my area.’

FYP in School

We connect with young people in primary and secondary schools, 1-2-1 and in small groups.

FYP Local

Our youth clubs and small groups meet in our base at Pennywell Road. We offer friendly faces and fun activities.

FYP 1-2-1

Counselling, mentoring and a range of tailored support is available for young people.

FYP On Location

We partner with SU Holidays to deliver weekends away and week-long holidays Easter and Summer.

‘Coronavirus has been a challenging time like not being able to go to youth group like Dime. I go there every Thursday night. They are always there for people. Dime does a Group FaceTime on Zoom to let us stay in Touch with leaders online. Keeping connected with the leaders has help me through this as I like a wee chat to keep me company during this hard time but can’t wait to be back with the leaders having banter and seeing friends.’
