This Way Up exists to support young people who are struggling with life changing events such as the divorce or separation of their parents or the death of someone close.

As a Christian based charity we are motivated by seeing people reach their full potential and we value each person we work alongside, helping them on their journey and respecting their views and opinions.

Our team of trained volunteers go into schools and get alongside young people who are finding life difficult.

We have a small group course called ‘Lost & Found’ and we also work with students in 1:1 sessions.

We have achieved the Approved Provider Standard from the Mentoring & Befriending Network.

“The support that This Way Up offers has guided students through some challenging times.”
“A year 11 student has now stopped blaming herself for the breakdown of her parents marriage.”
“I have grown in confidence”
“The group has helped me get back to my normal self”
