About London Youth
We are London Youth: a charity on a mission to support the capital's youth sector to improve the lives of young people. We do this with and through our members - a network of six hundred youth organisations - and at our two outdoor residential centres, Hindleap Warren and Woodrow High House.
Throughout our 135-year history, community youth organisations have provided a constant lifeline and vital space outside the family and formal education, where young people can develop confidence, resilience and skills. Young people need opportunities outside school to have fun with their friends, to make a positive change in their communities, and to shape the city they live in.
We look to work with all young people, focusing particularly on those who would not otherwise have access to the kind of opportunities we offer.
In 2023-24, we worked with 591 member youth organisations who supported more than 710k young Londoners. 28,676 young people took part in our programme, events, and activities, with nearly 18,000 enjoying activities at our two outdoor learning centres, Woodrow and Hindleap.

The Advocacy Academy is an activist youth movement. We serve as the political home for grassroots youth organising and the catalyst for collective action. The lives of the young people we work alongside have been directly shaped by living in an unjust world, and we exist to turn their anger into action.
Young people are often the catalysts for major social change, from the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee at the heart of the Civil Rights Movement, to the Soweto Uprising mobilising young people to resist the apartheid regime's education policies, to the Sunrise Movement redrawing the electoral map across America, and more recently encampments and protests across the world protesting the genocide in Palestine.
