Covid -19 response
Please note that due to COVID-19, our consultants have taken the difficult decision to suspend all face-to-face group and individual activities and services in response to Covid-19. This is to protect the most vulnerable members of the community and safeguard the health and wellbeing of everyone. We are starting face to face sessions in small groups and one to one for the most vulnerable young people.
Our team have put in place alternative services where possible, e.g. telephone appointments, zoom sessions in Romanes and English.
We are still doing outreach and provide educational activities to the most disadvantaged and vulnerable young people .
CYPF are also supporting the Healthy Holidays and volunteered to provide activities and food during this time. Please follow us on Social Media under our @ Terezia Rostas for more details about what we can offer.
Email us if you need urgent support with translation or you need a food parcel and educational activities: info@cypf.org.uk or teretzuca@yahoo.com
Please follow our social media for updates on our services.

Re use centre
.We are currently speaking to business , services about school resources, and various donations which could be reused under our alternative provisions and activities for free for young people.
The re use project will enable us to promote and value recycling and will bring together great minds and play workers who could prepare various activities based on what resources we have got ..
It will also bring us income for our organisation, by selling online the work which the young people will do .
This will enable us, to make the Play library more sustainable and will provide resources for our organisation
In the last ten-fifteen years , the team from the Care for young people's future , has worked actively and very intense to promote equality and inclusion in education for the Roma children and families and other BME backgrounds.
Our main background is in Education ,Law, Policies and Programs at European level, Culture,Art ,History ,Dance and Communities.
Our main reason for fighting against inequalities and promoting an inclusive educations , is because , we are part of the disadvantaged communities , we were one of the young people who experienced discrimination due to our ethnic origin,traditions and beliefs.
The work that we have done and that we aim to do under the '' Care for young people's future'', is the result of our passion to support the disadvantaged communities and the desire to empower the young people to become more active in all sectors.
We promote and we are driven by these main three topics:
Human rights , Equality,Inclusion
