Building Self-Belief in Teenage Boys' Programme

We had a brilliant experience working with these young people. We worked with them by building up their confidence by encouraging them to talk. We took them to the theatre, a restaurant and to the high ropes. They all learnt a great deal about each other and themselves. They made new friends and they developed better relationships with their families. Yet another success story from the charity Building Self-Belief!
