The Warren Youth Project
Three Minute Heroes is run by The Warren Youth Project. The Warren is a project devised BY young people FOR young people. It’s a place where young people can just be themselves and – if they like – they can use The Warren’s Counselling Service, or take up one of our hundreds of creative learning courses, or use our music recording and rehearsal space, or get employment and skills support through our Achieve Project. We also run projects such as the LGBT support group Shout; the Young Carers Project and our Pathway Plus Group for young people with Aspergers and Autism. Mostly we work with Young People aged 14-25 who are facing a range of challenges in their lives that can impact on their emotional health and wellbeing. The Warren also provides counselling to young people aged 10+ through the Headstart Programme in schools throughout Hull.
Young people can access all of these services by emailing, phoning or just dropping into the building. Although, if you’d prefer your parent/carer, GP, school or another professional can refer you into our counseling service.
There may be occasions the ‘drop in’ for counselling is not available as counsellors will be on visits with other young people, however this does not happen often.
For Counselling please call: 01482 221416 or email counselling@thewarren.org
For employment & skills support call: 01482 218357
For information on all other services, please call: 01482 218115
