Promoting leadership, excellence and citizenship in the community of Leicestershire.

Open Door Leicester

Open Door Leicester offers a free and confidential counselling service to young people in Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland.

Working in schools, colleges, youth clubs and Connexions Centres, we support all young people aged 11 (year 7) -25, with a focus on those aged 13 -19.

Open Door Leicester received £3,000 from Kirsty Dunkley, 19, who won the Young Achiever Award, with the money to be used to make a film about Open Door Leicester to help other young people see what the service can do for them and how, like Kirsty, they can have a successful future.
