Christmas support at YPAS

YPAS is open over the Christmas holiday period for children and young people aged 5 – 25 and parents/carers from Liverpool and Knowsley.  
If a child or young person is struggling with emotional and psychological distress, and consider themselves to be in a self-defined crisis or feeling lonely and isolated over the holiday period and need a listening ear, the City Centre Hub will offer them safe space. Trained professionals will be there to listen and support them through a difficult time.
