Since opening in 1989, the lowdown has supported over 200,000 young people age 12-25 in crisis. Each life changing and sometimes life saving session costs just £12

 

ONEhour can make a massive and positive difference in someone’s life. In any ONEhour session, the lowdown’s counsellors positively change and sometimes save the life of a young person who is vulnerable or in distress, and they have been doing this for the past 24 years.  The lowdown’s ‘ONEhour will make a Difference’ campaign is the chance for YOU to give one of your hours, to help us make a positive difference to the lives of local young people in crisis.

 

 

 

At any one time, a young person in Northamptonshire is experiencing a devastating personal crisis.  The lowdown’s team of dedicated volunteers are there to ensure they don’t face this alone, by being there when needed, to guide them through their difficulties.  Your support now will help uscontinue to change and save the lives of many 12-25 year olds and help to prevent crises such as teenage pregnancy, drug & alcohol dependency, self harming, stress & anxiety, depression and even suicide....... It is our belief, that young person should not experience mental or physical ill health unsupported.
