Recently RESIDE Bath’s General Manager, Toby Martin, sat down and spoke with Off The Record – Bath and North East Somerset (OTR, BANES) to discuss the important work they do in the area to support young people ages 10-25 who are living, working or studying in the area. Currently they support over 2,000 people a year and have over 30,000 contacts on record. So, their work here in Bath is very important.
OTR are celebrating their 30th anniversary this year and we wanted to show our support. OTR are providing a multitude of services to help every young person struggling, including services such as – counselling, listening support, youth participation, advocacy, support for care leavers and a LGBTQ+ focused youth group. OTR believes that all young people should represented fairly and push a focus on equality for all, regardless of the race, gender or sexual orientation.
If you want to hear what James, Ella and Andros had to say to Toby about their experiences working with Off the Record alongside their own personal experiences and how we can all help make a difference then the video is attached, and you can sit down and watch right here within this blog.
