Youth of the World supports young people to broaden their horizons, develop their skills and importantly have lots of fun

We work with children and young people aged 5 to 18. They might be living in temporary accommodation, seeking sanctuary in the UK or experiencing barriers because of their economic status.

Without the support of Afrocats, they would have limited opportunities to participate in activities and enriching experiences outside of school.
