Mergener Hof: Ludwig is planning new offers for young people in Trier!

In the heart of Trier, the Mergener Hof proves to be a lively meeting point for young people. The new house manager, Ludwig, who only discovered the popular place as an adult at various events, brings a breath of fresh air into youth work. His wish is clear: He wants to make the Mergener Hof a central contact point for young people in the transition to adulthood. In order to better meet the needs of young people, he has already established contacts with other youth centers in the region.

The Mergener Hof is not just a place for leisure activities; Great value is placed on a wide range of support and education. Ludwig emphasizes the importance of empathetic communication and emphasizes how important it is that young people are taken into account when making decisions. This is a sign of his open ear and his desire to participate, while the final decision still lies with the management. He is aware that strength of character is necessary to take on leadership responsibly.

Offers for all age groups

The Mergener Hof's offering is impressively diverse: from sporting activities to flexible parenting assistance and youth advice. Particularly noteworthy is the Miez-Box, which provides lunch and leisure activities for low-income families. In addition to the afternoon homework support, there are also creative workshops that promote the engagement of young people. Opening times are Monday to Thursday from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. and Friday until 5:00 p.m., with the children's club for 6 to 12 year olds being particularly well used. Activities such as table tennis, table football, basketball and board games await the children there.

There is a youth club for older young people aged 12 to 17. This open meeting place not only offers space for shared experiences, but also offers project options that are tailored to the interests of the young people. There is also an extensive program during the holidays that offers many different ways to spend your free time in a meaningful way.

Community and perspectives

The community in the Mergener Hof is one of the strengths that Ludwig emphasizes. This not only offers free time, but also a space in which young people learn to take responsibility for themselves and those around them. The Mergener Hof is in line with the principles of practical youth and social work, which offer holistic, life-world-oriented support that promotes the skills and personal responsibility of young people. The projects and activities are designed to both strengthen social cohesion and encourage social participation.

In Ludwig's vision, the Mergener Hof is not only a place for leisure activities, but also a promoter of better future opportunities. He relies on the interests of young people themselves in order to create offers that motivate them and support their development. The Mergener Hof not only reflects youth work, but also the hope for a fulfilling, communal future for the young people.
