Where we work

YSS is a regional charity, working across the West Mercia region; Worcestershire and Warwickshire, Shropshire, Herefordshire, Telford & Wrekin.

Our head office is in Worcester, whilst our 50 staff are co-located across the whole West Mercia region, supported by local volunteers.

We are passionate about local delivery that is rooted in communities, yet has a national profile and voice through our extensive partnerships.
