Who are we ?
Christian Youth Outreach is a registered charity through which the churches in Bridgend can express their concern for the young people of the area. It aims to reach out to young people through a variety of activities, which include the Solid Rock Youth Centre and Street Pastors.
It is managed by a board of trustees drawn from local churches, who work with the project co-ordinator and volunteers.
What is the purpose of CYO ?
The idea behind Christian Youth Outreach is a simple one. To make known among the young people of Bridgend the good news of Jesus Christ. To show that Christianity & faith can be an exciting and challenging way of life which can change communities.
Solid Rock Youth Centre is situated in Bridgend Town Centre. It operates as an open access coffee bar, providing a place for young people to meet, socialize and chill out in a safe environment. Its ideal location means that students from local schools and colleges meet every lunchtime and approximately 40 young people 11 – 18 yrs meet on Wednesday, Thursday & Friday evenings.
We hold weekly discussion groups for 14 -25 yr olds where they can explore their beliefs & values.
Street Pastors work in Bridgend Town Centre on Friday & Saturday evenings from 10pm - 4.00am. They have many opportunites to support people as they take time to listen & care for them.
