Global Youth is one of the largest independent youth organisations in Lancashire. Every week we work with over 200 young people, helping to improve and enhance the quality of their lives. Being part of Global Youth provides an adventure for young people and leaders alike, packed with energy, excitement, fun and challenging opportunities. We provide young people with great wisdom to enable them to navigate their way through this exciting but challenging phase of life. Global Youth runs detached street work, extensive schools' work, with lunchtime and after school activities, school, end of year holidays and much more. Friday hosts Global's successful youth event, providing young people with a great safe environment and a great atmosphere to meet their friends and enjoy a variety of activities.
