Below are the charitable services available in Barnet, Camden, Islington and surrounding areas.

Set up in 2009, Renaissance Foundation is a specialist youth charity providing support to two hard-to-reach groups: young carers and young hospital patients suffering from life-limiting illnesses. Their mission is to inspire these young people to reach their full potential through our three-year programme, using the power of inspiration, creative and digital learning and vocational development. Their programme is designed to create high aspirations, build resilience and confidence in public settings and support positive engagement with society.

Their young people take part in exciting projects including employability skills, global citizenship and coaching opportunities. In addition, they go on trips to museums, galleries, heritage sites, Formula 1 and lots more! 

Renaissance Foundation currently have a team of five full-time employees, based at their youth hub in Aldgate, supporting around 80 young people (plus alumni). They have ambitious plans to grow the charity’s reach significantly in the coming years.
