Our Groups For Young People
We recognise that it is particularly difficult for young people when they have experienced a bereavement and we know how important support from others your own age is.
We have regular group meetings and events which give young people the opportunity to meet with each other and have some fun!
Over the years we have enjoyed a wide variety of activities, workshops, trips out including drama workshops and theatre trips, martial arts evenings, pamper evenings and sailing trips. Bowling is always a fun get together and when the weathers been nice we have even met on the beach for barbeque. We like to get together, eat and drink lots and hang out in a safe environment where everyone there understands! There are volunteers available to chat with and we have trained peer mentors available who are happy to help newcomers settle in to the groups.
We meet each month in Redruth, Launceston, Newquay and St Austell and there is no cost involved for a young person to attend – we can even provide transport where necessary.
We were lucky enough to go away together on a residential a couple of years ago and are very excited to be going away again this year too!
If you are under 18 years and at secondary school and you think that you would benefit from being a part of our group sessions then please get in touch on 01209 210624 or email: enquiries@penhaligonsfriends.org.uk.
