Who we are
Electric Storm Youth (ESY) is a youth work charity operating in Lancing and Sompting, West Sussex. We deliver a wide range of services for young people in line with Youth Work National Occupational Standards.
OurValues
Truly Inclusive
We celebrate diversity and the uniqueness and worth of each individual. We see each person as equal and include them whatever their race, gender, religion, sexuality, or social or economic status. Everyone has a voice.
We Encourage Hope
Hope reminds us that we are on a journey and that the future can be better than today. We believe that positive change is possible, that everyone deserves the opportunity to realise their potential and have a second chance.
We Embrace Peace
We would like our people to live in harmony with themselves and with others - physically, emotionally and spiritually. We ask that individuals treat others as they wish to be treated, seeking reconciliation when relationships are damaged and bringing restitution when necessary.
Live with Respect
Everyone and everything is deserving of respect. We live responsibly, allowing people their freedoms and opinions, participate in society and create a space in which young people can explore their identity, different sub-cultures or beliefs.
We respect our environment; preserving the good, restoring damage and using resources wisely.
