About YaM

We hold that young people have their own assets, and through our Self-Education courses, we can bring them to the forefront.

We see the value and benefit of delivering projects in the community that is built on an asset-based approach, as well as a place-based approach, and advocate co-production whenever possible.

What we do

Self-Education courses

Workshops that help young people slow down, reflect, and explore their beliefs, habits, and identity.

Schools & community programmes

Delivering sessions in schools, youth clubs, and local hubs where young people already gather.

Support for parents & teachers

Offering tools and practices that carers and educators can weave into daily life.

Community co-production

Designing projects with young people and communities, so their voices shape the work.

What drives us

Empower young people (aged roughly 7-25) to explore their beliefs, habits, and environment in ways that build self-awareness and wellbeing.
Create safe, inclusive spaces where all voices are heard, especially those often overlooked (e.g. by culture, gender, identity).
Foster resilience: giving young people tools to navigate stress, uncertainty, and change with calmness and clarity.
Grow community: together with young people, parents, teachers, carers, volunteers, because wellbeing is relational, not individual.
