PATHWAYS
Pathways focuses on empowering young people to take a lead on shaping their lives and become aware of opportunities that will further their personal development and improve their well-being.
The programme tailors the specific needs of each young person to explore their challenges to help them into opportunities within YUAF’s own projects as well as through external partners, which include companies in the creative industries and other organisations. Pathways will provide progression and exit routes for young people to explore education and training opportunities, creativity and creative careers, as well as access to support for their physical and mental health.

MENTORING
We understand that not all young people are ready to take the next step into opportunities through Pathways and YUAF Futures. They may have low confidence, personal issues they are working through or haven't yet realised how awesome they are due to their life experiences.
Our one-to-one mentoring helps young people, aged 14 – 19, tap into their strengths by learning how to expand upon their attributes, empowering them to further increase their self-belief and well-being.
The confidence they gain will allow them to continue on the YUAF Pathways journey and seize opportunities to reach their goals and full potential.
Our work across these programmes allows us to further our mental health advocacy while providing youth mental health support.
