Pure Insight is a charity that has been established since 2013 as a direct response to issues highlighted by young people leaving care. We deliver services to young people in Stockport, Salford, Trafford, Warrington and Cheshire East.

**Our Mentoring Programme **provides practical and emotional support to youngsters aged 16- 28 through an amazing army of volunteers from the local community.

By directly involving young people in the design and delivery of our projects we can link them into a variety of different support networks allowing them to access the help and advice they need to solve problems, overcome barriers, improve health and wellbeing, gain confidence and move forward with their lives.
