Our culture and values

Our values underpin everything we do at Young K&C. They shape our organisational culture, our relationships and the decisions we make in working towards a Kensington and Chelsea where all children and young people can thrive. 

• Inclusive: We create spaces where everyone belongs and every voice matters.  

• Empathetic: We listen with care and respond with understanding.  

• Honest: We are open, transparent and accountable. 

• Collaborative: We achieve more when we work together.  

• Passionate: We care deeply about children, young people and the voluntary and community sector that supports them. 

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

Young K&C supports a wide range of diverse communities.

We are committed to ensuring that young people across all communities are represented within play and youth services and have access to high-quality support to achieve their full potential.

As part of our commitment to championing voices from across all communities, we acknowledge the barriers faced by people who have been impacted by poverty and experienced by women, LGBT+ people, disabled people and people from the global majority.

We actively encourage applicants from all sections of the community to champion and represent the voices we support both within and outside of our organisation.
