Youthline Wellington's Personal Development Programme

 Youthline Wellington offers an empowering 2-week Personal Development Programme (PDP) that concludes with a weekend residential camp. The kaupapa of our PDP is to develop the capacity of participants to grow personally and within team environments through skills, knowledge, experience, shared disclosures and self reflection.

This programme is currently only available as training for our volunteers. However, we hope to make this available to anyone wanting personal development training in the future. If you would like to express your interest for our PDP programme but do not wish to become a volunteer, contact us!

Youthline Wellington's 2022 Digital Appeal

Each year, Youthline Wellington holds our Annual Street Appeal. Since COVID-19's arrival in Aotearoa, we have adapted this significant fundraising opportunity to be an online Digital Appeal in order to continue keeping our community safe whilst generating funds for our services.
Youthline Wellington has been supporting young people and their communities for over 50 years. Our services include our 24/7 National helpline, and our local services; Youth Development Programme, Mental Health Peer Support Programme, Ongoing Education Programme and tailored workshops for young people and the community. As a non-government organisation (NGO) and a not-for-profit, we rely on the generosity of funders and our community in order to continue supporting young people.

​So from 2nd May - 15th May (ending in Youth Week) we are connecting with our community in order to raise funds for our services!
