GMYN is coming to Bolton for care-experienced young people!

We’re pleased to announce that we’re launching our first programme for care-experienced young people in Bolton this spring.
The young people who attend will be able to develop essential life skills, positive wellbeing and positive support networks that will aid their transition to adulthood. The age group for this programme is 16-25 year olds.
A new member of GMYN staff will be leading this programme – Carolyn Paine is the new Programme Coordinator:
“I am really excited to be joining GMYN and be working with young people in Bolton alongside Hassan, who has worked for GMYN for a number of years.
Carolyn – Bolton CEYP Programme Coordinator
“We have been out and already meeting young people and various professionals, everybody has been very friendly and welcoming. We have lots of ideas for our 1:1 support and group sessions, but we’re looking forward to getting to know what support and activities our young people want.
“Please get in touch if you want to know more about GMYN and the support we can offer.”
Alex Fairweather, CEO and Founder of GMYN, says:
“This is a very exciting time for us, we’ve seen so much growth and more demand for our services over the last few years we’re excited to continue this into Bolton.”
Alex – GMYN’s CEO & Founder
“Bringing diverse skills, experiences and backgrounds to our Bolton youth programme will help us prepare for the next journey in GMYN’s mission to support care experienced young people in this borough.”
If you know of any care-experienced young people that live or reside in Bolton, please do invite them to get in touch to arrange to come along to our sessions.
