24.01.2022 PCYC Walgett Touch Footy Comp week 4 action shots. Hornets remain undefeated! #empoweringyoungpeople #pcycwalgett #PCYCNSWclubs #touchfooty #centralnorthpolicedistrict

23.01.2022 Today we release our Annual Report. This report outlines another great year for PCYC NSW and we are very proud to show you the hard work that went into delivering the educational, multicultural, vocational, sport, recreation, social justice and crime prevention programs and activities across 64 clubs. During the year, we changed the lives of thousands of young people and marked the first anniversary of the NSW Police Commissioner's RISEUP strategy. Providing opportunities ...for young people to flourish has resulted in significant reductions in youth crime and anti-social behaviour across the state. We hope you will enjoy this report and be part of Team PCYC in the future as we work towards another year of encouraging and developing young people across NSW to reach their potential.

23.01.2022 Walgett PCYC & Emergency Services Christmas Lolly Run this Friday 18th December from 4pm - see map below... #empoweringyoungpeople #pcycwalgett #PCYCNSWclubs #nswpolice #centralnorthpolicedistrict #nswfireandrescue #ambulance #christmas2020 #santaiscoming #walgettcommunity

23.01.2022 Leaving school is a transition into adulthood that is especially tough right now. School leavers face a 14.5% youth unemployment rate. Entry-level jobs normally filled by young people are no longer available. PCYC NSW recognises the vulnerability of our youth, and that some need extra support. Together with NSW Police Force we are working hard to provide programs that make a real, practical difference. Kirsty was having some troubles in her life before she was referred to PCY...C NSW's Fit For Work program. She saw the program as a fresh start, a chance to re-set and imagine a different future. Now Kirsty is a valued member of staff at Bunnings Warehouse Australia and is focused on saving for a car. You can help more young people like Kirsty succeed in the future, because your donation to PCYC’s Fit For Work program makes a real difference. Please give generously to help empower our youth. Thank you. https://bit.ly/FitForWorkKirsty #donatenow #FitForWork #empoweringyoungpeople

17.01.2022 This R U Ok? Day remember it's important to continue the conversation. You don’t have to be an expert to keep the conversation going when someone says they’re not OK. You can help someone feel supported and helped long before they’re in crisis. That's how we can all make a positive difference to the lives of Australians who are struggling. Today we ask if you are OK and urge you to talk to someone and find help if the answer is 'no'. ...

If you plan on handing out treats please follow these NSW Health recommendations. if you have COVID-19 symptoms stay home, don’t receive Halloween visitors and get tested make it a front-yard event, not at the front-door of your house. only hand out individually wrapped lollies... don’t use communal lolly bowls. Maybe you could hang them individually on your fence, front gate or up your driveway offer hand sanitiser if you don't want people knocking on your door put up a sign that says We are home but due to COVID-19, we are distancing. Please take one . Happy Halloween. If you are planning to go trick or treating make sure you stick to your neighbourhood and only go in a small group. Have lots of fun! #Halloween #spooky #COVIDsafe

12.01.2022 PCYC NSW wants to hear from young people across the state to get a picture of how we can help you to not only survive, but to thrive. Your input will help form our Youth Strategy over the next three years. This strategy needs to be led by you, so we need to find out what what young people think and feel about a range of issues such as body image, the importance of sport and fitness, how the corona virus has affected you, and your thoughts on social media. This survey will ta...ke you 2-3 minutes to complete. That small time investment could have a lasting impact on the services PCYC is able to provide to young people across NSW. Please have your say!

09.01.2022 Young people have suffered the most from the economic fallout of Covid-19. School leavers face a 14.5% youth unemployment rate. Entry-level jobs normally filled by young people are no longer available. PCYC NSW recognises the vulnerability of our youth, and that some need extra support. Together with NSW Police Force we are working hard to provide programs that make a real, practical difference. When Harrison took part in the PCYC NSW RISEUP Fit For Work program, school wasn’...t working for him. With the help of PCYC NSW he changed his attitude and put in the effort to get the skills he needed to start his plumbing apprenticeship. He has turned his life around. You can help more young people like Harrison succeed in the future, because your donation to PCYC’s Fit For Work program makes a real difference. Please give generously to help empower our youth.
