Croydon's Turnaround Centre
Croydon Council's decision to house all the very best services for supporting young people under a single roof, and then fronting them all with a charity that specialises in working with vulnerable and excluded young people deserves applause. It's a remarkable first - and something that the borough should be proud of.
Focussed advice and support
The Drop in Zone service at Croydon Council’s Turnaround Centre is a place where young people can simply turn up for advice and support in a safe and secure environment. The Zone service is delivered by CAYSH who have been working with vulnerable and excluded young people in Croydon for over thirty years.
Within the Zone young people and families are able to get support from a team with a wide range of experiences and ways of helping. This might be some sort of intervention in a family dispute involving a young person, or signposting to the other services based at Turnaround Centre and those in the borough as a whole. The Zone is also here for families and parents who can come to us for support and advice.
