NATIONAL YOUTH WEEK 2008
It's back, and it's more awesome
than ever before!
Scroll down, you won't regret it...
The Youth Space is a lot of things... we run education and training programs, social support groups, provide free counselling, and we run activities and events!... we run education and training programs, social support groups, provide free counselling, and we run activities and events! Pretty much everything we do is for free, and on the very rare occassion when we actually have to charge for something you're never going to pay more than a few dollars!@@@@
We work primarily with disadvantaged, disengaged, at risk and marginalised young people aged 12 to 25, but we also work with young people from schools and what is often called "the mainstream". We try pretty hard to offer something for everyone, and the events we run are one way of doing that. We're doing stuff all the time, but there are two really huge events we put a lot of energy into every year without fail - our annual Christmas Event (XMAS@RAYS) and National Youth Week (NYW)!
There's a little while until Christmas hits again, but National Youth Week 2008 is here right now louder and prouder than ever!
National Youth Week 2008 starts APRIL 5 and wraps up APRIL 13.
This year for National Youth Week 2008 (NYW2008) the Youth Space has gone all out and pulled together some amazing fun stuff for your enjoyment. Scroll on down and be amazed! :o)
