Our Mission
To empower young people in Barnet to reach their full potential through engaging, accessible, and meaningful activities that promote wellbeing, learning, and social connection.
“Evidence shows that how young people spend their leisure-time really matters. Participation in constructive leisure-time activities, particularly those that are sustained through the teenage years, can have a significant impact on young people’s resilience and outcomes in later life”
