Everyone at XLP is incredibly sad to hear that Jack Petchey has died. Through the Jack Petchey Fdn support, he transformed lives, empowering young people to flourish. 🌟 "If you think you can, you can." Thanks to Jack, many at XLP are now helping the next generation.




🎙 XLP on BBC Radio London On Tuesday, we had the incredible opportunity to speak live on BBC Radio London, discussing the urgent issue of zombie knives and the impact they have on young people in our communities. [start at 2:18:35] bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0…




We are pleased to announce £7.2m in grants to 17 literacy and education charities across the country. The largest grant, of £2.4m, has been made to National Literacy Trust's Libraries for Primaries campaign, aiming to ensure every primary school in the UK has a library for its children.





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



Now, we're thrilled to reveal ten more charities we'll be working with in the coming year: ACS, Auditory Verbal UK, CHICKENSHED, Company Three, Home-Start London, Newham All Star Sports Academy, Peeple, Read for Good, Write Back, XLP
