Welcome

Here at North Yorkshire Youth we’re passionate about our product – opportunities for children and young people to discover their own potential.

That was the vision of our founders, way back in 1941, and it’s still our aim today. 

We provide opportunities for children and young people to learn and grow by:

  • supporting youth work in North Yorkshire communities
  • providing adventurous activities from Carlton Lodge Outdoor Centre
  • providing training opportunities for young people and those who work with them

Have a look around the site for more info on all these aspects of our work – there’s a specific section for each, plus contact details and downloadable resources.

If you’d like to know more, or if you’d like to get involved and work with us, give us a shout – we’d love to hear from you!
