My stepson went on one of the Youth Unity Tall Ships trips and had such a wonderful time. After many years of challenges at school and in other group/team environments, his self-esteem and his belief in himself to be able to take part in - and enjoy! - group activities was really low. But he loved the sailing trip and came back full of confidence and pride at how much he had done and contributed to the sailing trip and how much he had helped and supported his fellow crew mates. It has definitely give him a boost in confidence and self-esteem which was so needed. For a young person with ADHD, something like this, which is active, exciting and learning new skills things, is the perfect way to learn and grow. Thank you Youth Unity for the opportunity and to all the staff and team who made this happen and who took care of our young ones at sea. Highly recommend to all parents!

Youth unity is an excellent organisation that gives young people lots of opportunities to grow socially emotionally and mentally. It’s a great way to gain confidence and in many cases a place to be heard and listened to!
