A youth-powered fundraising campaign uniting young people across Oxfordshire to create real change.
Youth 4 Youth provides a co-produced platform for young people to engage in social action, and promote positive physical activity. In March 2025, this culminated in a football tournament called Play 4 Youth.
Every young person involved will gain key skills in teamwork, leadership, event planning, fundraising, and communications, making it an incredible opportunity to grow as an individual and as part of a new community of young changemakers.
This campaign began in 2021 with pupils from Radley College who worked with Oxfordshire Youth to raise money and awareness for a range of youth work projects.
Three years on, the campaign is looking to collaborate with state schools to bring people together, build new friendships, and make a difference in the local community that these young people share. The goal for this year is to raise £5,000, which will go to support Oxfordshire Youth’s projects.
We created a working group with 4 students from Radley in Year 11 to work with our Marcomms, Fundraising and Youth Engagement team, who will lead the meetings.
Tackling digital inequality among young people in Oxfordshire’s OX4 area through digital upskilling and Digital Futures Workshops, where young people use technology to create social impact projects.
Regular 1-1 check-ins, access to mental health support and opportunities for physical activity, helping young people feel seen, supported and more confident in themselves.
Weekly youth club (Hotspot), group trips, day outings and 1-1 activities, creating joy, connection and experiences that can be truly transformative.
Helping transform a room into a home with comfort items like lamps, artwork, cushions, rugs and plants, the small things that make a huge difference.
Supporting young people to take their next steps into independent living by covering essential costs such as tenancy deposits or initial rent contributions.
Youth work is a distinct educational process delivered across a range of settings that supports young people’s personal, social and educational development.
Social action is a collective effort to improve communities and address social problems. It can take many forms — volunteering, donating money, community organising, neighbourly acts, and redistributing power and resources.
Social action helps empower communities, support people in need, complement public services, build confidence and skills, and drive meaningful social change.
