As the evenings draw in and the weather becomes typically unpredictable TOKKO is opening it’s doors every Wednesday evening for any young person aged 13-19 to come along to our youth drop in a warm, friendly and safe space.
Whether you are coming with friends, want to meet new people or simply want some time out to relax on our gaming floor or develop your creative side you are all welcome. As always our youth workers and trained volunteers will be on hand to listen and support you.
Activities will include a mixture of physical, creative, educational, inspirational activities and boundless fun to ensure something for everyone, what is not to love?
Launch of Reflect text messaging service
From 20 February, a new text messaging service is being launched with a focus on young people aged 11-25 across Bedfordshire, Luton and Milton Keynes (BLMK)
- Young people can text reflect to 85258 if they need advice or help
- The service is delivered in partnership with Shout
- Reflect is free and does not show up on phone bills
The service is confidential and available 24/7. Young people including those on our counselling waiting list can access support via text at any time of the day.
Reflect can help with issues such as:
- Anxiety
- Bullying
- Depression
- Loneliness or isolation
- Money worries
- Relationship problems
- Self-harm
- Stress
- Suicidal thoughts or feelings
It is free to text from all major UK networks: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. These also include BT Mobile, Tesco Mobile, Virgin Mobile, iD Mobile, Sky, Telecom Plus, Lebara and GiffGaff. Some Android phones, including the Samsung Galaxy, may issue a warning that a young person will be charged for sending a message. Provided they are on one of the networks listed above, this warning is incorrect and they will not be charged.
If you are immediately concerned about the safety of a young person always contact 999.
