Brilliant Youth Room – great people and very good at keeping me sane in this place!
Young person aged 15
I love the Youth Room so much! I can get away from it all when I feel swamped by medical stuff and I can just come and chill out in a place where people understand me.
Young person aged 16
Thank you for inviting me on the residential. It was the best trip that I have been on! I met lots of new friends and it helped my confidence.
Young person aged 13
I was really bored in hospital until I was told about the Youth Room. You don’t have to stay in bed being miserable, it’s great!
Young person aged 14
I can’t speak enough good words about the Youth Service – I’m not sure where I would be without them!
Young person aged 18
NUH Youth Service is a fabulous but increasingly necessary addition to Children’s Services here at NUH.

I have met loads of new friends and done stuff I would never imagined I would. Having a chronic condition does not have to hold you back!
Young person aged 16
Well done to all of you for recognising the needs of these young people and their families and developing a best practice initiative!

I really love the Youth Service – the best idea for teenagers in hospital!

The Youth Work course has been fantastic! I have learnt about new theories and skills to give me more confidence when working with young people.
