OUR STORY

London is a fantastic city to call home, but a central truth remains in the capital. Every year thousands of young people find themselves unhoused, unsupported and unsafe.

That's why New Horizon Youth Centre exists.

Founded in 1967 by Lord Longford to address the needs of young people who were homeless and misusing drugs in the West End of London, today New Horizon Youth Centre continues to be a vital support network for 16–24-year-olds with nowhere else to go.

Through the services we provide at our day centre, via outreach and remotely, our multidisciplinary team of over 60 staff support thousands of young people experiencing homelessness in London to find safety, improve their wellbeing, develop skills for life and ultimately find somewhere that they can call home.

“For as long as young people are homeless and unsafe in London, we will be on a mission to give their potential a home”

For more info about our impact, please take a look at our latest impact report.

COMMITMENT TO EQUITY, DIVERSITY & INCLUSION

New Horizon Youth Centre is committed to recognising and valuing difference and ensuring fairness and equity; and recognising and seeking to redress inequity and disadvantage wherever possible. We have an ongoing action plan to improve our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) practices, which every member of our organisation has a role in contributing to.

As a service provider to young people facing homelessness and who are unsafe, we aim to be an empowering, supportive employer and to offer as much flexibility as possible to help each individual realise their full potential as users of New Horizon Youth Centre and as employees. We believe that this approach is key and central to promoting and developing diversity.

We recognise that true diversity in our community and within the staff group also involves a willingness to act, where necessary, by combating the effects of existing barriers to fair and equal treatment. Within society certain groups are unfairly discriminated against – for example on the grounds of race, gender or gender identity, disability, sexuality, age and class - and are, as a result, disadvantaged in terms of their access to services and employment. We will, where appropriate and where possible, seek to positively redress the effects of this discrimination. Any action we take will be legally compliant and consistent with our approach of making young people and staff feel valued and respected.

We recognise that many people have suffered disadvantage and barriers to progress for all kinds of reasons related to them as an individual and not because of their personal characteristics such as homelessness, employment, economic or domestic circumstances, or involvement with the justice system. For this reason, our commitment to diversity includes being supportive, positive and open minded.

We encourage applications from all backgrounds in respect of ethnicity, disability, gender, sexuality, religion, and socio-economic backgrounds.

New Horizon Youth Centre is deeply committed to inclusive working practices, so during the application process we commit to:

Reimbursing any childcare and other care costs whilst you are attending interviews.
Reimbursing your travel costs to the office and back for interviews.
Making any reasonable adjustments – for example ensuring we have a sign language interpreter organised in advance if you would like them.
Offering a guaranteed first stage interview for disabled candidates who meet the minimum requirements for the role.

If there is anything else you are concerned about or think we could provide, please let us know.

OUR WORK IS GUIDED BY THREE VALUES:

We champion young people

We collaborate for impact

We are determined to find a way

BACK TO OUR BEGINNINGS: ROOTED IN OUR PAST, FOCUSED ON OUR FUTURE – OUR STRATEGY 2025-2030

With rough sleeping at record levels and more young people fleeing violence, there's a pressing need and growing gap for a specialist emergency response that can support young people in crisis and open up housing for thousands more young people in need. Rather than trying to provide everything ourselves for all young people until they turn 25, we can focus on being excellent at supporting young people to get the safe homes they deserve as quickly as possible, support with life skills and living independently and helping them create a future without needing our support.

By getting back to our beginnings we will lean on our unique heritage as the only youth-specific day centre and drop-in in London and continue our long and proud history of being here for young people who find themselves homeless in the capital. Doing so means making some tough choices about who we cannot support and so our focus will shift to those in more immediate need, prioritising them over those we have already housed and we will be more focused at moving people on successfully.

We will support every young Londoner in crisis to access safety, support and stability, then transition them onto independence. We will do this by providing: Successful Services, Productive Partnerships & Confident Campaigning.

Too many young people cannot get the housing help they need.

So we deliver high quality, trauma-informed SERVICES for any young person that needs our support.

We spend 75% of our resources on this.

We spend 15% of our resources on this.

This is complex and difficult work to do.

Because the government under-invests in young people.

Because the services that should help can’t or won’t.

So we need to sustain a WELL-RUN ORGANISATION that invests in staff and celebrates the diversity that makes us a success.

So we CAMPAIGN, saying what others won’t say and doing what others won’t do to ensure that no young person misses out, even the young people we will never meet.

So we work in PARTNERSHIP to optimise our offer and maximise our impact.

We split 10% of our resources across these two areas.

“New Horizon.

It might not be your home.

They might not be your parents.

They might not be your family.

But they want you to win in this world.”

Najma, 21
