NORTH EAST ESSEX CHRISTIAN YOUTH OUTREACH

CYO supports young people and schools through both long term involvement and short term projects that encourage personal and spiritual development and deliver pastoral support. We do this through our own staff and through a network of trained volunteers, and we offer resources and support to others doing similar work in the Colchester area.
