THE SPONSORED ABSEIL – SUPPORTING YOUNG PEOPLE IN TOWER HAMLETS

Spotlight Centre in Poplar is about learning and exploring. It will have state-of-the-art recording studios, radio broadcasting suites, performance, dance, boxing, fashion & styling, chill spaces & more. Created by and for young people, with partners including the National Theatre, London College of Fashion, Barbican, Rambert Dance, Whitechapel Art Gallery, & the BFI; this new creative youth space in East London is unique.

Spotlight is also about supporting young people in Tower Hamlets, many of whom face enormous challenges in their day-to-day lives. Step Forward provides a free and confidential service to young people aged 11-25. No problem is too big or small. They offer independent information, advice, counselling, family support and personal development training,

 

‘Step Forward is so impressive to visit, welcoming and utterly committed to helping local young people. It is amazing that such an evidently worthwhile project does not receive the funding necessary to continue its vital work.’

Sir Ian McKellen, Step Forward Patron

 

Step Forward has a long history of providing services in the west of the borough; your sponsorship will allow us to bring these services into Spotlight too. Young people will be able to access the support they need in a safe space that they ‘own’. Thank you so much.
