Who Supports Us?
Funding
We are funded by personal donations, grants from Trust funds and charities, and donations from local churches as well as holding regular fund raising events.
If you feel that you would like to donate to enable us to continue the work, please contact us and we will tell you how you can donate. Thank you.
Volunteering
If you would like to offer some of your time to the work of the Project we are always in need of willing helpers.
As a volunteer you will undergo an induction process into the Teenbridge Project and cover the project's aims, its working practices, and be expected to complete a Volunteer application and CRB form. It will be expected that you would attend regular staff meetings and training as needed.
We think you'll be amazed at the skills and talents you have and how these enable you to relate to the young people in your community. All many young people want is someone to give them time, to listen to them, and to be interested in them - something we can all do.
Thank you for visiting our website and we trust you find what you are looking for - if you do tell others, if you don't tell us

Management Structure
We have Board of Trustees who meet bimonthly and oversee all the work of the Project. The Trustees are drawn from different churches from within the towns we work in and we also have young people co-opted onto our Board.
We are a Chartered Centre of Youth For Christ. This means we come under their umbrella, have access to their resources, information and yet retain our independence to set our own agenda, goals, and to meet the needs of the young people in our area in ways that we believe are relevant to them.
