Why the community needs this charity

It's a sad fact the levels of poverty, health, education and employment prospects of a significant number of people in our city are amongst the poorest in Europe and getting worse. With low levels of household income, poor local shops and services and high unemployment it's no wonder. We help the young people overcome these barriers and make positive life choices to build a better future for themsleves
