Sydney Youth Services

Youth centres are a youth service created to provide a safe place for connection, recreation and support centred around young peoples needs in a local area. They usually offer a drop-in service/space with no need to book. You can always give a centre or hub a call to inquire about availability and for current events. Youth centres and hubs generally cater to young people living in the local area. Have a look through the list below to find a centre close to you.
