About Yo!
Yo! Young Opportunities - is about creating more opportunities for young people.
One of our priorities as a city is for Wolverhampton’s young people to have the best possible start to life. Building their confidence, creating opportunities and giving them the tools they need to succeed. Most importantly, encouraging them to ‘never give up!’.
Local people of all ages tell us we need more opportunities for our children and young people, they’ve told us being healthy, connected and involved are what matter to them.
We listened and we now have Yo!
Yo! provides access to events and services within Wolverhampton that offer opportunities to children, young people and their parents. These opportunities are split into two types – events and services.
There are a wide range of events taking place in Wolverhampton, from outdoor fun days to digital learning skills clubs, sport and wellbeing activities as well as opportunities for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities. You’ll find them all listed here on Yo!

Are you an organisation that supports young people?
To succeed with Yo! we need to give our city’s young people and their parents access to as many local organisations that offer them support as possible.
Children and young people have told us being healthy, connected and involved are what matter to them. By signing up to Yo! you can connect these young people to your opportunities and support.
If you are such an organisation and you would like to be listed on Yo!, can we please ask you to sign up to become a member of the Yo! family.
