This festive season, Start360, Include Youth and the Belfast Health & Social Care Trust came together once more to host a Christmas party for young people we support.

It was a brilliant opportunity to celebrate, connect and share gifts - creating a warm, positive space at what can be a difficult time of year for some young people🎁💛

A huge thank you to everyone involved for helping make the day so special.

Start360 is proud to be working in partnership with the Northern Ireland Prison Service and Ardoyne Youth Club on a new pilot project supporting people as they leave Hydebank Wood College and begin life back in the community.

Through this initiative, each person leaving Hydebank receives a ‘You Matter’ pack containing essential toiletries, water and more - offering dignity, reassurance and practical support at a critical moment of transition.

We know that while many people leaving prison have somewhere to go, for others this can be an uncertain and challenging time. This project is about meeting immediate needs, showing care and reminding people that they matter.

Our Services Manager, Grainne Griffith, highlighted the strength of partnership working, bringing together Start360, Hydebank staff and the incredible young people from Ardoyne Youth Club, whose creativity and commitment have been central to turning an idea into reality.

We’re also incredibly grateful to Ardoyne Youth Club for their involvement, giving young people the opportunity to support others and make a meaningful difference in their community.

This shows how collaboration and compassion can create positive change at the moments it’s needed most.

Christmas kindness in action 🎄✨

This festive season our team has been working hard to bring smiles and surprises to the people we support - collecting and delivering Christmas gifts that will make a real difference this December.

A huge thank you to Cash for Kids and the Mission Christmas appeal for all the incredible support and generosity that helped make this possible. Mission Christmas works every year to ensure that children and young people in difficult circumstances receive gifts and feel the magic of Christmas morning.

We’re also especially grateful to Colin at Tesco Royal Avenue for going above and beyond to support our gift collection efforts - your kindness has helped spread so much joy. 🎁

To everyone who donated, wrapped, helped sort or gave their time: thank you for showing what community spirit and compassion can do. 💛

If you need support during the break, help is still available:
📞 Lifeline: 0808 808 8000
A free 24/7 crisis helpline for anyone in distress or despair.

Our Support Hub team took a well-deserved break to celebrate the festive season together last week - complete with a Christmas quiz, festive chips (the real highlight 🤩), and some present giving.

The Support Hub is all about connection, support and showing up for one another, and days like this remind us just how special this team is💛

A big thank you to everyone in the Support Hub for the care, energy and positivity you bring all year round. Change truly starts here - and it starts with all of you.

Wishing our team, partners and everyone we work with a warm and joyful festive season. ✨

Yesterday we came together to celebrate another year of impact, innovation and incredible people.

We kicked things off with our Year in Review presentation, followed by an inspiring input from Mick, who showcased an innovative new intervention shaping the future of our work.

We celebrated the dedication of our team with Long Service Awards presented by Gail from our Board, and our CEO Danny honoured those who go the extra mile with the Volunteer Recognition Award.

And of course, it wouldn’t be a Start360 Christmas Conference without some fun! 🎅 Our Christmas Quiz and festive competition brought plenty of laughs and friendly rivalry to round off the day.

A huge thank you to every member of the Start360 family - your passion, commitment and energy make all the difference 💛✨

Here’s to another year of changing lives, together.

Digital violence is rising - and no one should feel unsafe online.

It can happen through messages, comments, hacked accounts, constant monitoring, threats, or pressure disguised as “concern.”

It’s intimidation, humiliation, manipulation… all delivered through a screen.

If you’ve experienced this, you’re not alone. And if it’s new to you - here’s why we all need to pay attention.

Every woman deserves safety, online and offline.

Everyone has a role in ending violence against women and girls.

It starts with recognising it and calling it out.

Danny, our CEO, was delighted to take part in today’s Trusted Standard webinar, sharing Start360’s story of achieving Level 2 accreditation.

For us, this isn’t just a badge: it’s a reflection of the trust people place in us, the consistency of our services, and the dedication of our staff across Health, Justice and Employability.

Thank you to Jennifer Riley and the Trusted Standard team for the insightful conversation and for recognising the importance of quality in the community and voluntary sector.

Proud of the work we do. Proud of the people we support. Proud to be Trusted.

This Addiction Awareness Week, we’re shining a light on the reality of addiction and support.

At Start360, we know addiction doesn’t define a person. Behind every statistic is a story, a family, a journey.

Our teams across Northern Ireland walk alongside individuals every day, offering harm reduction, recovery support, mental health interventions, and a safe space to rebuild.

Addiction is complex. Recovery is possible.

And no one should face it alone.

If you or someone you care about needs support, we’re here.
