Red House Youth Projects is a charitable Trust which supports work with young people within the County of Norfolk.

This support is provided in two main ways:-

" Financial support via grants for projects, events etc.
" Opportunities for residential experiences at either of the two properties owned and run by the Trust

The Trust was originally two separate trusts, the Red House School Trust - the history of which can be found on this website - and the Norfolk Youth Projects (originally called Norfolk Children's Projects) which was set up by those interested in the welfare of young people, in1981 with the object to "promote education and training in the field of intermediate treatment of children and young people in the County of Norfolk who are delinquent or exposed to moral danger" (quoted from the Trust Deed). The definition of 'Intermediate Treatment' was given as "the education of children and young persons within the community with a view to reducing the need for their removal to residential institutions". (quoted from the Trust Deed).

In 2002 the two Trusts, having very similar objectives worked together with HM Charity Commission to merge and became the Red House Youth Projects thus combining the two main benefits and bringing together the expertise and knowledge of both sets of Trustees.

The current Trustees are representative of a wide range of experience within the field of work with young people in the County and who are committed to supporting this work through the Trust.
