OnSide is a well-established charity with the experience of creating Youth Zones across the country for more than a decade.
But we’re not done. We have a vision that any town and city across the country that wants a Youth Zone in an area of deprivation can have one. That this Network grows rapidly and extensively to deliver great youth work to hundreds of thousands of young people who need support.
In the next five years we plan to grow to opening 4 new Youth Zones each year; significantly increasing the number of young people accessing our support. This would grow our membership to over 100,000 young people.
We have invested to build the knowledge, skills and expertise in the team and the relationships with local authorities to make this happen. We have experienced fundraisers who will raise the capital and revenue funds for new Youth Zones within the communities we hope to serve.
We’re looking for partners who share our vision. Who know that now is the time to invest in young people across the country. We’re poised on the cusp of major expansion, all that’s holding us back is investment. If you’re interested in making a transformation to how young people are supported in our society, join us.
