Introducing aurora: a digital tool for the youth advice and counselling community

20 Oct 2026 10:30am - 12:00pm

The home for hubs is ready to launch

You told us what good practice looks like, where you need support and how you want to grow. We listened, and we built aurora.

A tool to help hubs see where they’re shining and where the next breakthrough could be.

This event is your first look at aurora live in action, a chance to meet with the team, and time to connect with hubs and partners across the country.

About aurora

Developed using the Youth Access Quality Framework (built alongside services, experts and young people across the country), the tool transforms the framework into a roadmap for development.

You can explore and score your service across each area of the framework to illuminate your strengths and your brightest opportunities.

Once you’ve completed your self assessment, you can build a bespoke action plan for the whole team to track your progress and access insights, resources and wisdom from the wider community, all in one place.

Backed by young people and the sector, aurora is a tool for hubs that:

  • Celebrates what you're doing well while guiding you toward even greater impact for young people
  • Connects your local excellence to national advocacy, ensuring youth services get the recognition and support they deserve
  • Brings your whole team into the conversation, making improvement visible, accessible, and exciting for everyone
  • Helps you builds action plans that take the guesswork out of development, giving you a clear starting point and a roadmap to growth
  • Showcases your impact and how you’re evolving to stakeholders
