Sussex Weald MP Nusrat Ghani has voiced her support for Crowborough youth charity Clued-Up following a recent meeting with the organisation.

Clued-Up provides free and confidential support for young people aged between 11 and 25 from its base in Crowborough town centre.

Its services include mental health support, sexual health advice and help with legal, housing and employment issues.

During the visit, Ms Ghani met Emma, a Clued-Up volunteer, who spoke about the support she had received from the charity over the past decade.

Ms Ghani said: “It truly was an honour to meet Emma, a Clued-Up volunteer, and for her to share her personal story about the help and support she has received from Clued-Up in Crowborough.

“Hearing Emma’s story and how they have helped her for 10 years was an eye-opener and a real insight into the level of service they provide, all free and completely confidential.

“The real moving part of her story was her journey from being a client to becoming an ambassador for the charity and enabling her ambition to become a therapist and support others in need.”

The MP said she had already helped connect local businesses with the organisation and encouraged others to consider supporting its work.

She added: “I have already helped other local businesses connect with Clued-Up, but they still need your support, so please get in touch if you can help them in any way.”

Clued-Up says it aims to provide young people with a safe and confidential place to seek advice and support on a wide range of issues.
