Helping young people to make a difference

Aims

Hideaway tries to support young peopie aged eleven to twenty-five in Moss Side, Manchester. The organisation aims to give young people a way of expressing their opinions and making posituve contributions to society.

History

In the 1960s. the city of Manchester had problems with crime, violence and unemployment. The founders of the Hideaway Youth Project wanted to provide a safe place - a ‘hideaway’ for young people in the Moss Side area in particular. Since Opening in 1965, the Project has helped thousands of teenagers of different cultures, religions and races. They can share their stories and get advice, as well as take part in activities that develop skills. Many of these teenagers then go on to become project volunteers themselves.

Activities

Programmes include:

Powerhouse — fun sports activities such as football and basketball, or specialist sessions on cooking and art.

Healthy Living - young people learn about how important it is to eat well and do regular exercise. Young Men's Project and Young Women's Project — these two separate projects support and encourage young men and women to talk about sensitive topics openly and honestly. The sessions promote acceptance and tolerance, and build self-confidence.

Award winners

In 2014, the Hideaway Youth Project won the Youth Work Award for their success in helping young people be the best that they can be.
