Time for young people is our new emotional wellbeing support space for young people aged 10 to 25 who live and study in Newham, east London. This film tells the story of four young people from Newham, and how they co-designed the hub.

YCF 2023 – The Young Carers Festival
The Young Carers Festival is an annual event that celebrates the incredible things that the UK’s army of hidden carers do for their loved ones. It’s a single weekend where many of these courageous and inspirational young people get to be their age, without the worry of the adult responsibilities they bear at home.
An example of our policy and influencing work:
Children at the Table: a children’s charities coalition campaign
Ahead of the general election, the UK’s five leading children’s charities – Action for Children, Barnardo’s, The Children’s Society, the National Children’s Bureau and NSPCC – came together. Supported by more than 130 organisations from the voluntary and community sectors, we wanted to make sure the next government has a plan to make decisions for babies, children and young people and put Children at the Table.
