A Warm Welcome, Thanks to BBC Children in Need
We are absolutely delighted to announce that BBC Children in Need has awarded us three years of funding to support something very simple—but incredibly powerful: a warm welcome.
Supporting Hidden Young Carers: A small project with lasting impact
We’re proud to share that The Rendezvous has taken important steps to better identify and support hidden young carers. These are young people who quietly take on caring responsibilities at home – often without recognition or support. As a result, they struggle with their own mental health, academic achievement, and the ability to participate in community activities.
Zoe’s story
At our annual learning celebration, we always invite a young person who’s recently finished their time with us to take the “alumni” slot and share a few reflections.
Celebrating Our Volunteers – Changing Lives, One Day at a Time
This national Volunteers’ Week (Monday 2nd to Sunday 8th June) we want to shine a light on the incredible individuals who give their time, energy, and expertise to help change young people’s lives—day by day, step by step.
Vacancy: Chair of Trustees
Our current Chair of Trustees is planning to relocate this year and we are seeking an inspiring leader to take his place.
Ashley’s story
“I suffer with anxiety and depression, which is why I am with the Rendezvous…..”
This is Ashley’s story in her own words (we’ve changed her name and the image is not her!). She has made the most of everything we’ve offered her – learning, 1:1 support and help with applications. She now volunteers at the learning sessions and we are extremely proud of the way she has grown.
