Meet Our New Look for The next 50 years!

The Dreadnought Centre has been supporting young people across Cornwall for 50 years. This momentous milestone is a testament to the profound impact our work has had, equipping thousands of young people with the tools needed to navigate the complexities of their world. To celebrate this legacy and prepare for our next 50 years, we are updating our look and identity.

Our commitment has always been to put young people at the centre of everything we do; they drive every decision we make as a charity. To better reflect this focus, we have simplified our name to just Dreadnought. By removing "Centre" from our name, we are emphasising that the young person is the core focus. Given that we work across all of Cornwall, taking support to where it is needed most, tying ourselves to a fixed location felt counterintuitive.

We’ve partnered with Unfold Studio (based in Krowji) to refresh our logo and branding as we step into our next chapter and look toward the future.

The concept behind our new logo is powerful: Ink mixes and grows. It represents the young person arriving at Dreadnought as a single, unique drop of ink and then, through the freedom to explore and express themselves openly, they begin to mix, expand, and grow into something new, distinct, and empowered.

This journey of self-discovery and growth is why our new logo is intentionally dynamic. You will see it appear in a variety of combinations and placements: a visual reflection of every young person’s individuality and unlimited potential.

We are excited to roll out this new brand identity over the coming months. Our new website www.dreadnoughtcornwall.co.uk has launched. With this launch, our email addresses will also update, but rest assured, any messages sent to our old addresses will still be received.

Critically, our services and support remain consistent. We will continue to offer:

• One-to-One Provision: Provided by our dedicated team of qualified counsellors.

• Dreadnought Aspires: Our popular and long-standing group project for young people with an ASC diagnosis.

• Group Projects: Successful programmes focusing on friendships, social skills, and confidence.

We remain committed to meeting the specific needs of the young people who seek our support. Please continue to get in touch if you have any questions or require specific assistance.
