LEAP is a registered charity that started in 1993 to transform the lives of young people and jobless adults who are disadvantaged by helping them overcome their circumstances to fulfil their potential and play a fuller role in society. We do this by education, employability and community programmes.
We run unique educational programmes which empower jobless people from disadvantaged communities with the concepts of personal responsibility and a ‘can do’ attitude. This is supplemented by a support service to help them get into sustained employment. In addition we have developed training programmes aimed at children in inner-city schools across London and manage a community centre in Kensal Green which puts on a range of classes.
We currently help over 2,500 people a year, providing a wide range of services including empowerment training, helping people into work, classes for local young people; mentoring; IT and numeracy classes.
