The Newtownabbey Young People’s Directive project is supporting young people aged 8-21 from the Rathfern, Fernagh, Kingspark, Monkstown and Glengormley areas over three years.
These young people are facing issues including drug misuse, criminal activities, poverty and bullying. The project is using the £197,824 grant to run activities including a breakfast club, after-school club, youth clubs, counselling, personal development, life skills, training and awareness sessions.
Activities are taking place in Rathfern Social Activity Centre and are increasing employability, improving mental and physical health, boosting confidence and self-esteem, and helping young people set positive goals.
