About the Organisation

A national charity that believes all young people should have the opportunity to discover their passion and their purpose that fund and build state-of-the-art, multimillion-pound youth centres called Youth Zones in the country's most economically disadvantaged areas.

The organisation trains the amazing people that run them and offers continuing support to youth zones nationwide through a national network of independent youth charities,
