At Youth Action Alliance, our mission is to support the personal and social development (their
values, beliefs, ideas and skills) of the young people living in Kensington and Chelsea and
neighbouring boroughs, enabling them to increase their resilience and skills in the present, and
promote their ambitions for the future.
We are ambitious to grow, to continue supporting more young people and influence positive
change. To do this we are looking to appoint a Project Lead to deliver an innovative and
progressive youth programme, in a safe industrious and supportive environment working
primarily with young people from diverse communities.
The Staying Connected project provides weekly one-to-one and group support for young people
aged 11 - 19 years, facing multiple challenges. Creating a personal action plan comprised of
positive activities that promote and enhance personal development and skills, building on young
people’s strengths. This engagement is via face-to-face, online platforms, mobile phones and
structured group work to maintain contact with them, talking about how they are feeling and to
provide advice, mentoring and signposting to additional support services.
