WORK

with us

I really wish I had a place like HideOut to go to when I was younger. Seeing our members discover themselves alongside their passions is such a rewarding journey to be part of. Stay ambitious you crazy lot, your potential is limitless, truly.

Youth Worker

Dear HideOut, thank you for heling us blossom like flowers, teaching us how to work hard like bees, and for showing us that the prettiest flowers are the ones that are different.

Junior Club Member

When he's at HideOut I know he's safe, he's going to have something to eat, it's a warm environment, and I trust the staff... I feel comfortable with them looking after my son.

Parent

I'd like to thank all the staff at HideOut for all that you do for me - for helping me develop my confidence and as a person.

Senior Club Member

Just listening to young people gives you an insight into how they view the world and what changes they want to make.
