The Young Foundation supports locally led action, building knowledge around the issues people tell us they care about. We work collaboratively to improve lives and address shared challenges, driving social change for stronger communities and a fairer future. We have a long and a proud history of community-led innovation, incubating more than 80 new organisations – including The Open University, The School for Social Entrepreneurs, Year Here, Social Innovation Exchange and many others. Our ambitious five-year strategy embraces collective effort and redesigns the social contract between people, communities, state and business – to shape a fairer, greener future.
