New Horizon. It might not be your home. They might not be your parents. They might not be your family. But they want you to win in this world.”

A note to you from Phil, CEO
Dear applicant,
Life is not linear. Nobody knows that better than the young people who come to New Horizon Youth Centre. While the thousands of stories they tell us every year are as different as they can be, one thing unites them: their current experiences of homelessness do not define them or where they will end up. Indeed, as one of the young members of our Women’s Space told us, sometimes you have got to go through the darkness to get to the light.
Our story
London is a fantastic city to call home, but every year thousands of young people find themselves unhoused, unsupported and unsafe.
That's why New Horizon Youth Centre exists.
Founded in 1967 by Lord Longford to address the needs of young people who were homeless and misusing drugs in the West End of London, today New Horizon Youth Centre continues to be a vital support network for 16–24-year-olds with nowhere else to go.
Through the services we provide at our day centre, via outreach and remotely, our multidisciplinary team of over 60 staff support thousands of young people experiencing homelessness in London to find safety, improve their wellbeing, develop skills for life and ultimately find somewhere that they can call home.

Our Commitment to Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI)
New Horizon Youth Centre is committed to recognising and valuing difference and ensuring fairness and equity; and recognising and seeking to redress inequity and disadvantage wherever possible. We have an ongoing action plan to improve our EDI practices, which every member of our organisation has a role in contributing to.
We encourage applications from all backgrounds in respect of ethnicity, disability, gender, sexuality, religion, and socio-economic backgrounds.

Our staff - whether full-time, locum or volunteers are absolutely crucial to the work we do. The relationships they build with young people who may not have had no one to trust growing up are essential to the huge positive changes we see amongst those we support.
