CHARITY PARTNER

WE'RE PROUD TO PARTNER WITH THE
YOUNG URBAN ARTS FOUNDATION!
YUAF’s day-to-day involves connecting disadvantaged young people aged 13-19 with empowering opportunities to learn, grow, be heard, seen and celebrated through music production, rap, spoken word, lyric/songwriting, DJing and podcasting. Our iconic, accessible Studio Bus enables YUAF’s artist facilitators and youth workers to deliver exciting creative, wellbeing-enhancing outreach workshops to young people on the streets and estates of deprived wards across Greater London. One deck is equipped with cutting-edge recording studios and the other is set up as a safe space for youth dialogue, creativity, expression and connection.
Our superpower is building trusting relationships and providing a supportive community for young people to grow within. When they’re ready, we support them to access training, work experience, and/or employment with our industry and educational partners via ‘YUAF Futures’ (intensive group upskilling and experiential learning for Global Majority, LGBTQ+, disabled, low income 16-19s) and ‘Pathways’ (individualised aftercare for vulnerable young people to overcome barriers, develop confidence and mental health and access opportunities).
