At a youth centre in south London, where staff and volunteers run a daily after-school homework club, young people turn off their phones and focus on their studies in a safe, supportive and fun environment.
Like many youth organisations nationwide, the centre provides a space for young people to do positive things together, outside of school and family. Staff tell us that the young people they work with are as interested in the state of the world as any of us, but their everyday concerns tend to be more practical: doing well at school, getting a job or a place at university.
There is a clear link between the kind of society we aspire to be and the chances we offer to our next generation of voters, citizens, employees and parents. London mayor Sadiq Khan has said that we need to focus on "prioritising places and spaces where people can come together in communities". This feels like a welcome endorsement of the role of local youth organisations and youth work.
Alongside this positivity, however, reports show the profound reduction in services for young people resulting from funding cuts. With huge pressures on all local authority budgets, these cuts won’t be reversed. So how do we sustainably fund youth work? There are no easy answers but there are areas we need to prioritise:
First, less targeting. The focus on funding "targeted" work—while important—has reduced the capacity of some organisations to deliver open access or preventative services. The Youth Investment Fund, with its explicit focus on services that are open to all young people, is a welcome start—more funding needs to go this way.
Second, more efficient spending. In 2016, the Educational Excellence Everywhere white paper announced plans to fund some schools to extend their provision of access activities and programmes that would help young people develop skills employers value. Instead of funding schools, however, this might have been better achieved by funding existing youth organisations to work in partnership with schools.
Third, better collaboration. As funding sources become ever scarcer, organisations working with young people may be tempted to compete and present their offerings as unique. We need to recognise that young people have diverse needs, and that they want to choose and shape services themselves. Some new models of capacity support are emerging through co-ops, mutuals or voluntary sector-led foundations. These initiatives—and the new investments they might encourage—are welcome.
There are reasons for optimism, and encouraging signs that youth work is valued and people want to support it. It is still not clear that funding will follow the rhetoric, however. If it really is important to give young people the opportunity to lead, shape and strengthen our communities, then let’s stop talking about it and invest in it.
