Sector Wide Youth Work Support Site Launched in Response to COVID-19

A new website targeted to offer youth work support in the form of advice, guidance and resources during the COVID-19 crisis has been launched through a cross sector collaboration. The site has been developed to provide a single point of access for youth workers and those working with young people.

Access the full site via: https://youthworksupport.co.uk/

The site has been developed rapidly and it will continue to be updated as more news is published and more resources are made available for use across the sector. The advice is being informed by a ‘Youth Work Expert Group’ that has been convened and is meeting virtually on a regular basis to consult on responses to new announcements as they are made, intelligence from the sector and government guidance.

The site is conveying a simple message as the sector responds to the global pandemic:

Keep Calm, Stay Connected, Be Safe

There is an open invitation to share any additional tools and resources (aimed at young people or youth workers) via nya@nya.org.uk or movement@ukyouth.co.uk
