Everything you do matters
From the moment you open the door and enter one of our services you become something more than you once were. You enter the place our young people call home, a place where a grin can make a young person’s day, where listening can not only save but shape a life, a place whereby simply turning up on time and being present has a bigger impact than it does anywhere else.
Walking through the door at Cambian means having a direct impact on the futures of the young people in our care. At one of our places, asking “how school was” is so much more than a throw away question, it’s stability, it’s paying a genuine interest and listening to the response. It’s a way to break barriers, a way to unlock confidence and demonstrates you are here and here is safe.
