We deliver regular activities for children and young people living across upper Teesdale. We bring groups of young people together to spend time with others, relax away from home, enjoy fun activities and build their confidence and skills.
Our trained and experienced Youth Support Team are here to provide advice and support to local young people when they need us.
All young people are asked to register for free with UTASS before access sessions. Registration forms can be completed and returned here.
For more information contact Gina Richardson, Youth Team Lead at gina@utass.org or call the office on 01833 641010.
