The Westminster Foundation regularly supports youth hubs, given their expertise in understanding unique local challenges that young people face. 

The Foundation has provided a combined grant of £1.5m over five years to support the development of key youth hubs in partnership with the Young Westminster Foundation. The grant helps four prominent youth clubs – Avenues Youth Project, St Andrew’s Youth Club, Fourth Feathers Youth and Community Centre and Future Men – as they work in collaboration with other youth organisations to provide joined-up services for young people in Westminster.

The partnership covers core costs for the youth hubs, providing vital stability and ongoing support during a period where youth worker resources have experienced a significant reduction of 69% since 2010/2011.

By adopting new approaches like this youth hub model in Westminster, the Foundation helps sustain these important community spaces for future generations of young people.
