ABOUT US

We are a registered charity supporting young people in their transition from adolescence into adulthood by providing access to a comprehensive range of personal development and inclusive programmes in inner city areas.

 

We provide alternative options outside of school within community settings which enable young people to acquire transferable life skills, activities of daily living skills, professional workforce skills and qualifications

Our work is designed to enhance the life chances of young people achieving success in both Sporting, Vocational and Academic pursuits. Currently we are engaged in employment, social inclusion and community cohesion projects in the  London boroughs of Greenwich, Hackney, Islington, Newham, and Tower Hamlets



Our international work in third World countries is gaining momentum and our International Student Exchange programme kicks off this year with exchanges between students from the UK, Brazil, Nigeria, Thailand and South Africa

Our mission is to empower  the next generation by providing them with bespoke developmental  opportunities to engage in constructive pursuits leading to accredited qualifications, employment

and a better quality of life.

WISE Youth Trust works with children and young people aged 7-21 years, particularly those from disadvantaged communities. Over the past 32 years, we have been involved in numerous community initiatives aimed at promoting civic responsibility, community safety, cohesion and social inclusion.

WISE Youth Trust has evolved out of Westward Boys FC in order to expand the organisation’s work and to provide a comprehensive range of opportunities for children and young people through sports and outdoor pursuits, arts & craft, employment and social enterprise training



Our organisation have a track record of delivering sustainable outcomes and opportunities for children and young people to participate in community activities. Our organisation has been responsible for providing competitive and recreational football to over 2500 young people since its formation.

Among those, are international players in the top flight of professional football such as Ashley Cole, Scott Parker, Joe Cole, Lee Bowyer, Jay Boothroyd; who all got their introduction to youth football at the club. The sports club currently runs 14 teams ranging in the U7 to Adult categories participating in local and regional leagues and is currently working towards the FA Charter Standard status

We believe that children and young people need the best start in life in order to flourish, and the experiences that they have through these years can make all the difference. Therefore, our provisions are designed to meet the universal outcomes envisaged for young people in the Government's Framework, Every Child Matters.

To achieve these outcomes, we enable them identify their own pathways; allow them to reach their potential and take responsibility for their own growth, developing skills and competencies for working life in the process.
