How We Help

We want a South Central London where young people feel safe, secure, fulfilled and able to express themselves.

We work alongside young people and their families in some of London’s toughest communities – including Lambeth, Croydon, Lewisham, Southwark and Greenwich – to help improve their life chances.

About US

South Central Youth is a Lambeth-based charity working to improve the life chances of young people in some of London’s toughest communities.

Our specialist team works at a community level, building strong relationships and a sense of kinship with young people. We help support them to feel safe and secure, to look after their mental fitness and empower them to live safer, more fulfilling lives.
