BALLYMUN REGIONAL YOUTH RESOURCE COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE

Ballymun Regional Youth Resource (BRYR) is a community-driven organisation dedicated to empowering young people aged 10-24 in the Ballymun area of Dublin. By offering a safe, youth-friendly hub - known as the Reco - BRYR provides a diverse programme of activities that support personal development, health and well-being, and the transition to adulthood.

Key services include a weekly drop-in space, youth-led committees, and the WhatsUP Mental Health Service which delivers on-site counselling. BRYR also runs 1-2-1 support, digital arts workshops (podcasting, 3D printing, social media), creative arts projects, and a vibrant calendar of events such as Pride, International Women's Day, a three-day Christmas fair and sport tournaments. Additional programmes feature a summer activity scheme, residential overnight experiences, specialised groups for LGBTI youth, young travellers and young mothers, and detached community youth work that meets young people where they are on the streets and in local parks.

Through its commitment to respect, professionalism, honesty and optimism, BRYR builds trusting relationships, promotes resilience and encourages active citizenship, helping Ballymun's young people to realise their potential and contribute positively to a thriving, inclusive community.
