Concordia Youth Action (CYA)

Are you a young person living in Sussex who wants to make a positive change?

 

The Concordia Youth Action (CYA) initiative  can help you do just that. Have fun whilst developing skills by participating in a programme of interesting activities.

 

Concordia is a charity that supports people to thrive. We offer youth programmes and UK and International Volunteering opportunities.  The programmes are accessible and open to young people aged 16-to-17 or up to the age of 25 with Education Health Care Plan (EHCP).

The Concordia Youth Action programme supports young people in Sussex to engage with the local community. Underpinning all our sessions is the drive to develop young people’s skills and give them experiences that help them thrive. We align all our activities with the Skills Builder Framework, to help prepare for the next steps both inside and outside of traditional education.
