Positive Youth Foundation raise the aspirations and life chances of 8- to 25-year-olds. They run regular groups with girls and young women, looked after children and newly arrived refugees.

Our donations will help people at risk of exclusion from school, offending or exploitation, enabling PYF to deliver weekly functional skills classes to c. 20 young people over 40 weeks of the year. It will also enable them to offer some places to young people who were not referred directly from a paying provider, and it will cover some of their related costs for supervision, teaching materials and lunch for some students who stay with them after the class. This will reach young people who would otherwise not have the opportunity to participate in this programme.

The picture shows a group of young people and PYF team members who put together a Santa's Grotto, so that everyone involved in PYF could receive a present at the end of the year

Colleague donations will be matched.
