Two weeks ago, we shared "A Manifesto for Young People Across London." Comments showed these needs are nationwide. As the UK General Election approaches tomorrow, we must remember young voices. 20% of the population, but their needs are so often overlooked. #GeneralElection2024

Well done to our Year 7 and Year 8 students who got stuck into a football session which was led by an XLP coach. It was a fantastic session and great to see the students enjoying themselves in the sunshine! #football #sports

Today we are saddened by a 14 year old boy lost to knife crime in Woolwich. Our hearts go out to his family, friends, and community. 💔 This tragedy shows the need for safe spaces for young people. XLP’s youth centre nearby will be offering support and hope today.

Two young people from Cumberland Community School on work experience with XLP mapped out a truth we can't ignore: some young people journey from school exclusion to youth offending services. But their map had hope. A Youth Work Branch that starts with listening and leads to positive futures

As London thaws and spring begins to bloom, we’re reminded that even the smallest signs of hope matter. For many young people, life’s still tough. But in a quiet chat, a kickabout, or a trip out of the city we see that hope starts to grow. And that changes everything. 🌱
