At Youth Unity CIC, we support young people across Essex who may be at risk of exploitation or harm. Working in partnership with Essex County Council and Essex Police, we deliver early, relationship-based support through community youth work and one-to-one mentoring. In collaboration with schools, Youth Services and Youth Offending Services, we help young people feel safer, build resilience and move towards positive futures.

Alongside this, we run a community youth club in Chigwell, now in its fourth year, providing consistent, trusted support and safe spaces for young people to engage positively, build relationships and access ongoing guidance.

Here is an overview of our work across Essex.
