Can YoCO help you or someone you know?
All young people are subject to a variety of influences through teenage years and sometimes it can be difficult to know what is the best choice to make.
YoCO helps young people develop personal confidence and resilience, through its educational programme, so that they can make good decisions that will set them up for a bright future.
YoCO groups meet weekly in term time at several locations around Oxfordshire. They are fun and inclusive, and with the support of the group leaders, the young people follow the YoCO programme working through a series of personal challenges and team building tasks.
Would you like to join a YoCO group, or believe someone you know would benefit from these sessions? Please contact info@yoco.online or complete our individual referral form.
