Young People with SEND
Youth Groups
FAB Group
The FAB (Fantastic and Brilliant) Group is a group of young people aged 11 to 25 who have SEND. Every month, the FAB Group come together to make friends, share experiences and exchange insights into support for young people with SEND in the local area and beyond. The monthly meet ups alternate between in-person meetings and online meetings, to suit the preference of as many people as possible.
SEND Youth Link
SEND Youth Link is the name for our young people’s peer mentoring service delivered in Newcastle and Northumberland. Youth Link helps to improve communication and relationships between you (if you are aged 11 to 18 years old) and your family, help you make friends, strengthen your confidence and self-esteem.
We match you with a trained volunteer (who is usually just a few years older). They will help you to look at your difficulties and help you to come up with solutions to your problems. We have helped hundreds of young people through Youth Link on issues such as bullying, loneliness, family and school problems.
This is a free service, to find out more use our contact us form, or ring our Youth Link teams in Newcastle on 0191 273 3997
