Amber

About the charity

Amber gives unemployed young people a real chance to put their past behind them, sort out their problems and make a fresh start. Our residential centres help troubled young people to overcome personal barriers and gain the social, educational and practical tools to lead successful, fulfilling, independent lives and be valuable members of society.

“I was in the gutter and as low as I could get, living in a tent and getting into more and more hard drugs. Amber was the saving of me.”
Wayne, an Amber success.

At Amber hundreds of young people are given all the time, space and support they need to make that vital life change and every year over 80% successfully do so but without donations and the support of our work, this would just not be possible.
