Chilypep

Chilypep (the Children and Young People’s Empowerment Project) is a charity dedicated to raising the voice of children and young people, giving them the platform to shape their world and stay connected. We work with all young people in Sheffield, Barnsley, South Yorkshire and Beyond.

Our purpose is to promote the rights, wellbeing and opportunities of all young people across South Yorkshire.

We do this by:

  • Working with young people to campaign around issues that affect them.

  • Working with organisations and schools to increase meaningful participation of young people in strategic decisions.

  • Working with community services and local authorities to ensure that young people’s rights are protected and that their best interests are served.

  • Working in partnership with other charities, NGOs and organisations to deliver work which has a positive impact on the lives of vulnerable young people.

  • Training organisations and individuals to increase and improve the services available to young people in need of support and information.

Over the last 20 years Chilypep has worked with thousands of young people in South Yorkshire and across the country.

We take a holistic approach to working with young people and believe that involving them in decision-making in a meaningful way is both beneficial to the young people themselves and society as a whole.
