Amber can transform your life.

Our mission is to help unemployed people aged 18 to 30 who want to sort out their lives and make a new start. You may be unemployed as a result of not having a home or maybe as a result of addiction or having been involved in crime, whatever the reason, Amber could help you.

Amber provides a short-term home and the support of a committed team of people who can help you to find new hope and a new direction. With their guidance you can beat your problems, re-build your self confidence and develop the skills you need to find work and to live independently.

You can come to Amber in a number of ways - Social Services, probation, prison service, Job Centres, night shelters or you can contact us yourself. So, if you like the sound of Amber give us a ring on one of our freephone numbers  0800 652 1081 (Ashley Court), 0800 652 1091 (Bythesea Lodge) or 0808 1789 388 (Farm Place). We will ask you a few simple questions and, all being well, set up an interview date. This will give you the opportunity to meet the young people and staff at Amber and find our more about what we do. If Amber is the right way forward for you, you could join us within a fortnight.
