Unlocking Potential and Opening Opportunities for all young people aged 11-25 and their families.

We’ve been short-listed for Charity Shop of the year! – Please VOTE FOR US HERE – by Thursday 2nd October.

Intensive Support Update

Good news – our remote support for young people is back up and running!

That said, we’re still at full capacity for face-to-face mentoring, so we’re not able to take on any new requests for in-person support right now.

Parent support and youth clubs are still open as usual, and young people can also reach out through The Door Line and Web Chat, available Monday to Friday from 5–7pm (see details below).

Got questions? Give us a call on 01453 756745 or drop us a message via our contact form.

Thanks so much for your patience and understanding!

"Where Every Young Person's Future Is Determined By Their Potential Not Their Past"

The Door's mission is to bring hope into the lives of young people and their families, through unlocking potential and opening opportunity so their past does not define their future.

Motivated by the Christian values of hope, forgiveness and prayer The Door delivers its services at the heart of local communities, seeking to engage stakeholders from the bottom up. We have in-depth knowledge of the local area and its people, we tackle the root causes leading to enduring results and are prepared to deal with complex issues that other agencies shy away from.

The Door travels with people for the long term – walking alongside them, carrying the burden and never giving up.
