About Us
Build Sound Minds Derby and Derbyshire is a new service. We provide specialist support for children and young people aged 0-17 who are likely to present emotional and mental difficulties but do not meet the thresholds for more specialist services. Through early intervention we are able to build resilience and reduce the development of more serious emotional and mental health issues, better preparing children and young people for the challenges of life.

Reach Youth

About Us
Reach’s vision is simple: we want to be Disciples who Go, Plant and Build God’s church and Kingdom throughout Derby, the UK and the World. We share in that vision as young people too. We’re looking to raise up youth that are wanting to Go, and that know what to Plant and are able to Build when they get there – wherever “there” may be!
In order to see our vision become a reality, we run quite a varied programme. We balance our time between focusing upwards on God, focusing inwards on each other, and focusing outwards towards our friends and the world we live in. We spend time being all gathered together for things like our residential and youth nights, as well as a monthly worship night called Awakening.
