Taking Hope, Healing & Empowerment to the Streets

We are raising funds to create the Proud to Be Me “Reflections Hub on Wheels”—a mobile safe space that delivers mentoring, confidence-building, and vital county lines awareness directly into the heart of communities.

Many young people and families—especially those from marginalised backgrounds or where English is a second language, such as South American communities—may never step into a classroom, counselling session, or workshop on their own. This mobile hub brings support to their doorstep, breaking down barriers and offering healing and empowerment where it’s needed most.

What the Reflections Hub Will Offer:

  • One-to-one mentoring & emotional support for young people and parents

  • Confidence, self-esteem & identity-building sessions

  • County lines and exploitation awareness workshops for youth and families

  • Safe space conversations around mental health, grief, trauma, and life changes

  • Guest speakers and relatable role models who reflect the community

  • Outreach and resources for parents & carers in accessible formats and languages

  • A visible, non-judgemental presence right in the heart of neighbourhoods

Why This Matters

We work with young people and families who are often left behind—those living with trauma, facing discrimination, or at risk of county lines exploitation.

This van will allow us to reach:

  • Young people hiding their struggles or being pulled into dangerous situations

  • Families who face language and cultural barriers to accessing support

  • Parents looking to reconnect with their children and build safer homes

  • Communities where mental health, self-esteem, and identity support is scarce

Our team combines real-life experience, cultural understanding, and professional expertise. We know how to connect with young people and families who feel unheard, unsupported, or isolated—because we’ve lived it.

What We’re Fundraising For

We aim to raise £30,000 to cover:

  • A reliable van and its conversion into a safe, creative, and welcoming space

  • Resources for workshops and multilingual well-being sessions

  • Branding and visibility, so the community knows we’re here to help

  • Fuel and travel costs to reach estates, schools, and events

  • Insurance, upkeep, and running costs

Help Us Build the Reflections Hub on Wheels

Every donation large or small helps us bring hope to the streets.
Together, we can prevent exploitation, build confidence, and empower communities.

If you believe in healing, prevention, empowerment, and second chances, join us in making this vision a reality.

Let’s take hope on the road. Let’s build the Reflections Hub on Wheels.
