OUR STRATEGY 2025-2030
BACK TO OUR BEGINNINGS: ROOTED IN OUR PAST, FOCUSED ON OUR FUTURE
With rough sleeping at record levels and more young people fleeing violence, there's a pressing need and growing gap for a specialist emergency response that can support young people in crisis and open up housing for thousands more young people in need. Rather than trying to provide everything ourselves for all young people until they turn 25, we can focus on being excellent at supporting young people to get the safe homes they deserve as quickly as possible, support with life skills and living independently and helping them create a future without needing our support.
By getting back to our beginnings we will lean on our unique heritage as the only youth-specific day centre and drop-in in London and continue our long and proud history of being here for young people who find themselves homeless in the capital. Doing so means making some tough choices about who we cannot support and so our focus will shift to those in more immediate need, prioritising them over those we have already housed and more focused at moving people on successfully.
We will support every young Londoner in crisis to access safety, support and stability, then transition them onto independence. We will do this by providing: Successful Services, Productive Partnerships and Confident Campaigning.
