THE WHEELS are beginning to turn marking the start of constructing a Pounds 1.1 million project in Newquay, rehabilitating young women from troubled backgrounds.
Just a couple of years after the Newquay Christian Centre (NCC) secured the purchase of the vacant Wesley Church Hall, on Seymour Avenue, it is now preparing for the building project to replica hublot watches begin in the hall.
Entitled the Turnaround Young Women's Project, it aims to provide supported accommodation for young women between the ages of 16 and 25, this being in line with its current highly successful Turnaround Young Men's Project. Turnaround project director, Deborah Bonner, said: "Turnaround works to help young people move into education, employment, training or voluntary work with the ultimate objective of independent living as an autonomous contributing member of society.
"For many young people from backgrounds of, for example, youth offending, family breakdown and for some abuse, there are underlying issues, anger management and relational problems which need to be addressed in order to achieve this.
"Turnaround provides a holistic approach tailoring each young person's personal development plan to their identified needs in the above areas and directing them towards counselling, anger management and training preparation courses. Turnaround also has a zero tolerance policy when it comes to alcohol or drugs" The new project also aims to provide a move-on facility for young people who have completed the first replica tag heruer watches stage of this service.
Mike Robins, senior pastor at NCC, said: "This Pounds 1.1m project will be a place that can really do some good for people who haven't had the best starts in life and will be something Newquay can be proud of."
Situated less than 100m from the existing facility, the site was approved planning permission last year to be converted into a new cutting edge centre complete with an onsite training suite.
"The new accommodation will comprise of five units for young women and five units of move-on, lower level support accommodation, to help young people transition back into independence in a stepped way, rather than the stark contrast of a full-time support programme to being 'out on your own' with no form of help or assistance," said Deborah.
"To address and inform people in, or outside, the town we will be holding an open evening to Clip on charms answer any questions people have about the project and give them a chance to meet some of the people we have helped."
Since Turnaround opened its doors in 2004, more than 50 young people have lived within the project and had the opportunity to turn their lives around.
Steve, a resident at the project, said: "The best thing I could have done was move to the Turnaround Project. It's given me new life and new hope to what I can do with my life."
Inspector Dave Meredith, from Newquay Police, said: "The project, which has been running for five years, has been a notable success.
"The project has received the full support of the police and continues to give vulnerable young men much needed support, guidance and direction in life."
The open evening for people to find out more about the project will be held on March 24th from 7 - 9pm at the Source Cafe, Marcus Hill. All are welcome. For more information call Jon Timms on 01637 875684; email or visit
