The centre has 3 PCβs that are connected to the internet so you can play games, check emails or do research for homework. TACTIC also offers support around any issues you have in your life with 1-1 mentoring. For many young people their youth worker is a person they openly talk to, and their youth organisation is a safe space where they are supported to explore themselves on their own terms. If you have a question you feel you canβt ask anywhere else or need advice about something that is concerning you then pop in and talk to one of the friendly helpful staff
The Centre also has a wide range of leaflets covering subjects that you may find useful in your life, so if you donβt want to ask a staff member, you can pick up leaflets to take away. Some of the issues TACTIC can support you with:
β’ School, College and University

β’ Problems with your own or someone else's drug use
