MAP's Advice Service are proud winners of the Flourish Resilience Award, alongside Breckland Youth Advisory Board who were Flourish finalists in two categories.
We are delighted to have received this recognition for our work, and proud to have been selected by a panel of young people from over a hundered nominees across all categories.
Our Advice Team works with young people aged 11 to 25 across Norfolk, delivering work in three Advice centres: Norwich, Great Yarmouth and King’s Lynn. We offer both generalist advice, and mental health advice through our sameday drop-in service, whilst also providing a range of additional interventions including 1:1 work around issues such as debt and benefit appeals, dedicated sessions for young parents including baby massage and antenatal classes, a Stay & Play drop-in service for young parents and their children, and a mediation service working with young people around their relationships with family.

Finalists! Breckland Youth Advisory Board recognised in two categories 🎉
We are so proud that Breckland YAB have been recognised as finalists in the 'Understood' category at this year's Flourish Awards. Breckland YAB works with young people and professionals to bring about change in their communities. The aim of the YAB is to identify issues that impact young people and to play a strategic role in meeting these needs through the commissioning of services, lobbying on behalf of young people and influencing decision makers.
One service commissioned by Breckland YAB, the Cup-O-T: Wellness and Therapy Service, also recieved a Finalist Award recognising their achievements. The Cup-O-T: Wellness and Therapy Service is a not-for-profit mental health service based in Breckland. It provides mental health interventions and wellness sessions to young people and adults. Its social purpose is to make mental health support accessible at an early stage, to support young people to achieve their potential, to make mental health support accessible in rural areas, to increase mental wellness in communities.
