Young People
Young Suffolk (www.onesuffolk.co.uk/youngsuffolk)
is the only countywide infrastructure organisation for the
voluntary children and young people’s sector.
Young Suffolk, under the old name of SCVYS, was
established in 1974 to promote and meet the needs and
aspirations of young people under the age of 25 by
strengthening and supporting the work of its member
organisations that directly deliver services to young
people.
Young Suffolk is ever evolving and adapting to move
with the needs of its members and, most importantly, young
people. Essentially, Young Suffolk is a network of
the major voluntary organisations working in Suffolk with
young people, ensuring that the principles guiding it help
empower young people to achieve the 5 outcomes highlighted
in Every Child Matters:

Young Suffolk
is heartened that the government’s strategic plan,
Youth Matters: Next Steps, is supporting what
Young Suffolk and its members have been working
towards for years: improving young people’s life
chances and making certain that young people have
‘something to do, somewhere to go and someone to
talk to'. |
