Welcome to the Amber Project Website
The Amber Project exists to support any young person (aged 14-25) in Cardiff and the surrounding areas who has experience of self-harm.
Please feel free to look around, and if you have any questions or think that we might be able to help, please do contact us. We are available Monday - Friday, 9:30-5:30. Unfortunately the pandemic has had a huge impact on our services, but we are now able to take new referrals and are offering a range of support.

Pantomime 2021
In September we will be beginning rehearsals for our 2021 pantomime Robin Hood, if you would like to be involved please do contact us..
The Y.M.C.A. Theatre has been the home of Amber Pantomime for many years, sadly we recently learnt that it is to close. This means that the project is looking for a new venue. If you know of a theatre space that you think would work for us please do get in touch,
