BASE51 Teal

Base 51 has been supporting young people aged 11-24 in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire since 1993.

The charity founders were inspired by a project they saw in New York which offered a holistic support to young people, giving them a one-stop shop where they can access wellbeing services.
