About Us

YEP! is our new skills, development, and engagement programme for 16-24 year olds who live, work, or study in Westminster. This programme, shaped by our previous Young Ambassadors, will give you a glimpse into what the Young Westminster Foundation does and offer you a taster of different organisational opportunities to explore further.

Over the course of 4 months, you’ll gain skills in communication, grant-making, peer mentoring and more! You’ll also gain insight into how charities and businesses run with planned visits to our partners and member organisations.

The programme will run from October 2024 to February 2025.

Keep updated via our social media platforms Instagram and X(Twitter).

What have we done so far?

  • Finding out what’s important to us – we interviewed over 100 young people to help create the Our City, Our Future report. A chance for our views to be heard by people in power
  • Amplifying youth voice – we joined the YWF grants panel to help decide how £300 000 should be spent for young people in Westminster
  • Meeting local employers – we’ve presented at events, secured internships and built our confidence for future jobs
  • Theatre trips and social events – we regularly explore culture together in the borough
