About Us
Our Work
At Youth Action, our work spans a wide range of programmes designed to empower young people and tackle inequalities. From youth leadership training to adult education, we equip individuals with the skills and confidence to thrive. Our employment support initiatives help young people and families overcome barriers to work, while our focus on addressing inequalities—be it in health, economics, education, or living conditions—ensures no one is left behind.
We are proud to have taken young people to over 50 countries, giving them the opportunity to take a seat at the table at major youth-led conferences and shape the global conversation. Our international consultancy work further amplifies young voices and drives meaningful change worldwide.
Closer to home, we stand with families in times of crisis, whether supporting them through the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic or the ongoing cost-of-living crisis. Whatever the need, we are committed to delivering impactful, inclusive, and compassionate support for young people and their communities.

Our Values
At Youth Action, our core values of inclusivity, collaboration, and cohesion are at the heart of everything we do in youth work. Inclusivity means creating a space where every young person feels valued, respected, and empowered, regardless of their background or circumstances. Collaboration reflects the essence of youth work—working alongside young people, listening to their voices, and partnering with communities and organisations to achieve meaningful change together. Cohesion is about fostering a sense of unity, belonging, and shared purpose, helping young people build strong connections with others and within their communities. These values shape our approach, ensuring we provide support that is compassionate, effective, and truly youth-centered.
