Resources from Time to Talk Next Steps Online Celebration 2024

In June 2024 we celebrated the incredible achievements made through the delivery of the Time to Talk Next Steps programme with a series of successful online sessions. These sessions offered a unique opportunity to share learning and reflections from young people, carers, staff, and associates.

This rights-based support initiative has empowered young people with additional support needs aged 16-25 across from across England. Delivered in partnership by NDTi and Contact, and funded by The National Lottery Community Fund, this program has made a significant impact on the lives of many over the past 3 years.

Sessions were co-facilitated by 12 young people, 4 dedicated carers and staff members, and were attended by 140 delegates from across the country. Each session provided valuable insights into how personalised, strengths-based approaches help young people build confidence, set their own goals, prepare for adulthood, and have their voices heard.

Explore resources from our celebration including presentations below and useful links to tools, podcasts, videos and blogs created by young people and shared throughout the Celebration.
