Nottingham City Adolescence Youth Service

Nottingham City Council Adolescence Youth Service, working closely with our partner organisations, provides a safe, supportive, and welcoming environment where young people can feel included, respected, and valued. Through our joined‑up approach, we offer vulnerable young people meaningful opportunities to get involved in positive activities, develop new interests, build strong and lasting friendships, and gain important life skills. Our programmes encourage confidence, personal growth, and a sense of belonging, helping each young person explore new experiences that contribute to their wellbeing and future aspirations.

The Nottingham City Council Youth Service Hub and our partners offer after-school and evening youth provisions where young people can get involved in sports, team games, dancing, arts & crafts, music, media courses, cooking skills, leadership skills, accredited learning and wellbeing workshops!

These are just a few of the activities and services that young people shape, lead, and participate in. We also deliver projects that focus on young people's needs and improve their general well-being and health.

Professionals, parents/carers or young people themselves can make referrals to our service. Young people must be aged 11 to 16. Young people must also live or attend school or college in Nottingham city boundaries.

Our Youth Workers are professionally trained to provide the highest level of support, and work closely with partners to provide counselling, mentoring and access to other services.
