Youth Work For All means ensuring meaningful youth participation and engagement in decision-making processes. This , we're spotlighting our AI Use Survey, which gives young people the opportunity to share their views on the role of AI in youth work and beyond.

We want to hear directly from young people to help shape a policy that reflects their experiences, concerns, and aspirations. Your voice matters, and your input will help ensure that young people's perspectives are at the heart of our approach to AI.

Have your say and help shape the future of AI in youth work.

A group of our young people collaborated with Solus Art on a youth-led art project in the Rosconnell housing estate. They created a wonderful piece of socially engaging art and is an example of what can happen when young people are given the space to be creative, have their voices heard and shape their environment.

Working collaboratively with .art , the young people designed the image themselves, sharing their ideas and vision. Solas Art then supported them to bring their design to life-turning their creativity into something colourful, visible and meaningful to the community.

Huge respect to the brilliant young people who put their energy and pride into making Rosconnell shine! 💫

Happy new week Everyone :-)

Kildare Town Youth Project brought their Disco Divas group and their DnD group to Explorium - National Sports & Science Centre as part of their Summer Programme.

They participated in a Virtual Reality experience and enjoyed the science and sport centre, learning science through physical activities and they all really enjoyed themselves.

We would like to thank for the use of the Garda bus in getting us there and back.

What happens when you combine creativity, expert guidance, and six motivated young people? Magic. ✨

Thanks to funding from Kildare CYPSC and the expertise of facilitator , young people at the Eyre Powell IPAS Centre created two stunning Stop-Motion animations.

Over the course of the workshop, the group – aged 10–14 – developed new skills, built confidence, strengthened their teamwork, and discovered the power of storytelling through film.

Thank you to Kildare CYPSC, and the young people themselves for making this such a memorable project. We're so proud to have been part of it.

🩹 Young people from NoName, Mizzoni OPS and the Junior Leaders Group completed a Basic First Aid course, building valuable life skills and confidence.

🐞 Our Inclusive Group teamed up with Paul from the Men's Shed to create a fantastic Bug Hotel, supporting biodiversity through hands-on learning.

⚽ After six weeks of training, our LYP football team was tournament ready! The excitement and team spirit has been brilliant to see.

🎢 The LTOT girls enjoyed an action-packed day out at Emerald Park, making memories and strengthening friendships.

🌳 Our Inclusive Group challenged themselves at Zipit, stepping outside their comfort zones and supporting one another every step of the way. A big thank you to Garda Chris for bringing the group!'
