Cardigan-based youth charity Area 43’s work was showcased as the National Lottery’s Community Fund ‘Iconic Project’ in the Senedd, as part of an event marking 30 years of the community fund.
Dyfodol Ni is a 6-year partnership project led by young people which brings together established youth-focused established professionals and organisations in Ceredigion. This coordination will help design and deliver joined-up and co-produced mental health services and interventions for young people in Ceredigion, improving access to the services our young people need.
Elin Jones MS said: "I have had the pleasure of visiting the Depot in Cardigan and saw first-hand the great work done there. It is exciting to see their latest project receiving national recognition. So many of our young people in Cardigan and the surrounding area have already benefitted from Area 43’s work, and this project will help make much-needed mental health services available to young people across the whole of Ceredigion. The first year has been very successful. I’m now excited to see the work develop further – first in Lampeter and then at the Hen Goleg in Aberystwyth."
