2 About London Youth Our vision is that all young Londoners access a wide range of high quality opportunities for learning and fun, beyond family and formal education, building strong trusted relationships with adults and their peers; leading to broadened networks and increased confidence, character and skills. Our mission is to support and challenge young people to become the best they can be. We want all young Londoners to have the best of this incredible capital city; for it to invest in their potential, encourage them as leaders in their communities and open up opportunities for them to thrive. We work with all young people, but place a particular emphasis on those who wouldn t otherwise have access to the kind of opportunities we offer. We are committed to quality standards, learning and understanding what works. And we involve young people at all levels of leadership and decision-making. And we strive to act in line with these three simple principles: 1. Honesty 2. Collaboration 3. Commitment to Improvement

Short-term funding Variable quality and reputation Lack of involvement in design and delivery of programmes and services Low profile and status of what they do Workforce low pay, short term contracts, lack of security, training and development Challenges with connecting into local agencies

12 What could funders be doing? Investing in quality Acknowledging core costs and full cost recovery Backing evidence and track record not just innovation Giving flexibility in funding Offering long term support Funding positive outcomes not problems Involving young people
