Your donation makes a difference

Each year we work directly with over 2,500 young people and reach many more. We work with young people who are dealing with mental health difficulties, facing problems at home or in their relationships, managing complex caring needs, are homeless, struggling to find work or seeking advice and support.

Young people can talk to us about anything – mental health, housing, homelessness, employment, education, finances, sexual health, caring responsibilities and much more. They may have complex needs and may not know what they need to talk to us about, whatever it is we will help them to work it out and then do all we can to support them holistically with their practical issues and emotional needs.

Our services are available to all young people* in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough, without any barriers. They are free, confidential and ‘open access’. Young people can self-refer and they don’t need an appointment to talk with us.

The need for our services from young people is still growing and this demand often exceeds our capacity. We know that the right help at the right time can prevent problems escalating.

Please consider making a monthly or one-off donation to Centre 33 so that we can continue to meet the needs of young people in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. Your support will enable us to work with young people to fulfil their potential and help us meet growing demand .

If you have any questions about your donation to Centre 33 then please contact our Fundraising Team – fundraising@centre33.org.uk

*aged 13-25 for all services except our Young Carers Project which is for those aged up to 18

Effects of Covid-19 on young people

Since the Covid-19 outbreak, we are seeing increases in levels of anxiety and greater mental health needs presented by those young people who are contacting us. 1 in 3 young people have reported a deterioration in their mental health, increased stress, isolation, and conflict as a direct result of Covid-19. They also have concerns about money and loss of work, whilst anxiety about Covid-19 and concerns about education have increased throughout the lockdown.
