If you’re aged between 15–24, live in Richmond Borough and want to support Off The Record Twickenham’s work, why not join our Young Person’s Advisory Group (YPAG)? Not only will you be helping to shape the future of our service to make it as effective as possible, but you will also have a chance to develop your own skills and experience. You can:
- Advise on what young people need from our service
- Have your say about issues that are important to you and your friends
- Make a difference to the emotional wellbeing of young people living locally
We’re an informal and friendly group that meets around four times a year.
Here’s what some members of YPAG have to say:
What YPAG members say…
I feel as though I am giving back to my community and helping people with mental health issues. Being a member doesn’t demand a huge amount of time and makes a difference.
Many of my friends have been helped by OTR and found their services very valuable. OTR makes the lives of young people easier when they are going through exam stress and other issues.
As well making changes to help local young people, being part of YPAG will help me in the future. I have gained an understanding of what mental health looks like and valuable experience which has also helped my CV.
