The Underground was set up in 2001. It is the Rock Trust’s main activity hub, providing support and development opportunities to young people aged between 16 and 25 with a background of homelessness. It currently hosts a variety of weekly drop-ins and focused group work sessions designed to provide a safe and non-judgemental environment for vulnerable young people in need of guidance and information.
In 2006, major renovation works took place to create the multi-purpose space, which added shower and laundry facilities and the kitchen to the facilities, allowing the services to develop and grow. The Rock Trust’s Underground Café provides a broad mix of learning opportunities and practical support for young people in crisis. This includes an informal drop in service, a support network for those who are homeless or at risk of homelessness, a meeting space for young parents and the chance to access volunteering, training and employment opportunities.
