This weekend, 12 young people who are engaged with our Targeted Youth Support Service (TYSS), will be channeling their inner Bear Grylls, as they set off on an action-packed, fun-filled residential trip, “Time Out New Forest”!

The group of 11-15 year olds headed out yesterday at 5pm, ready to embark on an outdoor activity 4-day residential trip to Tile Barn Outdoor Centre, in Brockenhurst. Last night, the young people plunged head-first into their first challenge of pitching their tents (in rather unfavourable conditions!), and prepared for 4 exhilarating days, where they will work together as a team to complete a range of outdoor activities.

This is the first of 5 residential trips, in partnership with Youth Options, with the next one scheduled for 29th August. Watch this space for updates of how our young people got on…
