YTD Raised: £0.00
(UK, 1041710) Mobex North East has been working with vulnerable and disadvantaged young people since 1991. We specialize in working with people who have little self esteem or confidence; offenders; people with mental health issues; and behaviour issues. Based just outside the centre of Newcastle we are ideally based to travel to any part of the North East. An essential part of learning and personal development, whatever people's age or circumstances, is to experience the world beyond the school, home or work environment. We provide the opportunity for people to take part in quality outdoor education programmes that can become one of the most memorable learning experiences of their lives. We help people to make sense of the world around them by making links between feelings and learning. These experiences can effect behaviour, lifestyle and work; they can influence values and decisions. We help people to discover what alraedy exists within themselves ... as Michaelangelo said, "I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free".
