Why your donation matters

Every penny donated to Kirkby Stephen Youth Centre goes directly into creating a safe, welcoming space for local children and young people. In rural areas like ours, opportunities for connection, support, and fun are few and far between. Your donation helps us offer life-changing experiences, from mental health workshops to creative activities, hot meals, trusted adults to talk to, and a place to just be.
We’re not just running sessions, we’re building confidence, reducing isolation, and showing young people that they matter. With your support, we can keep the doors open, the lights on, and the kettle warm. Thank you for believing in our young people as much as we do. 💛
