We're lacing up our running shoes to run the epic half marathon through the vibrant streets of Hackney. We're a team of 35 seasoned runners and fist timers running 13.1 miles to raise money for Hackney Quest.

Hackney Quest aims to give young people, families, and community members the practical and emotional support they need to develop and pursue their aspirations and deal positively with life’s challenges.

We help build confidence, develop new skills, widen perspectives and opportunities, as well as uncover existing strengths and capacities.

Our projects include:

Youth Work: Supporting 200+ young people aged 8-19 via a range of term-time & holiday activities, workshops, residentials & accreditations.

Employability and Wellbeing: Supporting young people age 14-25+ to gain skills and opportunities with their employability & wellbeing.

Volunteering and Mentoring: Giving opportunities to local people to support young people, families & vulnerable clients in the community.

Family and Education Support: Helping young people, parents & families to navigate the systems that affect their lives - education, social care, immigration, housing systems & more.

Community and Hardship Support, and Events: Supporting older members of the community as well as young people & using events to bring people together.
