Supporting young people to achieve their full potential

Young Leicestershire is the biggest provider of open-access clubs for young people in Leicester and Leicestershire with over 15,000 members now attending our network of affiliated groups.

We’re passionate about providing young people with the widest possible range of positive activities – which we achieve through leading and supporting voluntary-sector services.

We support and help raise funds for everything from sports clubs and young carers’ groups to international conventions and new youth centres.

With 60 years’ experience behind us, and professional expertise that’s recognised as unmatched in our field, Young Leicestershire is run entirely as a charitable institution.

Young Leicestershire doesn’t only offer support and inspiration to young people, to youth clubs and organisations…

We’re reliant on the priceless contribution of a small army of over 2,000 volunteers – who can in turn take a great sense of achievement and community involvement from working with our groups.

And our local business partners all report lasting reciprocal benefits when staff volunteer their time to work as a mentor or at a young people’s club, developing their own skills and active citizenship.
