  • “WEST is a brand-new purpose-built facility for West London’s young people aged 8 – 19, and up to 25 for those with additional needs. WEST is staffed by skilled and dedicated youth workers who truly believe in young people – helping them see what they can achieve, and giving them the skills, confidence and ambition to go for it. Since opening their doors in April 2024, WEST have gained over 1500 members and welcomes up to 200 young people every evening, weekend and during the school holidays. Just a few of the facilities include a 3G football pitch, boxing gym, music room, sound studio, sensory room and performing arts studio. The money raised from this cycle will go towards WEST's running costs, ensuring as many young people as possible can continue to benefit from their incredible facilities and that they are supported by fantastic youth workers.
