The Routes Skills Centre is our truly youth-led site based in the Eastleigh Borough. From the design, to the development, creation and maintenance, everything is done by young people with the support of staff and volunteers. In partnership with our friends at Edmonds Learning and Development, young people are supported to gain accredited qualifications in construction, horticulture and team work, whilst completing their assessments in the development of the site itself. The site boasts an outdoor kitchen and allotment, and continues to be developed.
The site itself is also the home to our office container, which was completely renovated into a functional office by the young people who access the site. From first fix electrics to joinery, plastering and even the design of the external façade- all of it was done by young people.
