We're proud of the support and engagement we offer the young people here at RUSH, its through support like yours that enables us to do what we do and engage with our young people in the most positive way. Outdoor activities are just one of our chosen ways to let the young people here at RUSH let off some stream, enjoy the great outdoors and learn new exciting skills.
We're incredibly grateful to be working with LandAid's Pro Bono Programme and the team at Stephen George + Partners to explore how our accommodation can better meet the needs of the young people we support. As part of the project, Annie Beeton, Architectural Assistant at SGP, has been helping us review our current building layout and develop ideas to improve our bedsits and communal spaces. The aim is simple: create accommodation that feels more comfortable, practical and welcoming for the young people who call Rush House home. Our Head of Development and Housing, Jamie Prescott, shared: For a not-for-profit organisation, access to this level of professional expertise is incredibly valuable. We are extremely grateful for the support, enthusiasm and professionalism shown throughout the process. Projects like this help us look to the future and ensure were providing the best possible environment for young people aged 16-25 who need our support.

Last week, our Peer Connector and Community Health & Inclusion Worker attended the Rotherham Futures Fair alongside one of our young residents. The event was designed by and for young people with SEND and explored a wide range of topics linked to preparing for adulthood, including education, employment, independent living, health, and community opportunities. It was a fantastic opportunity for our young people to meet local organisations, discover the support available, and gain information to help them plan for the future.
