Mwanzo Project is a Black Led Grassroots Community Interest Company founded in response to the gap in provision for children and young people who are at risk/involved in offending, exploitation and street conflict.
We recognise the racial disproportionality within our Criminal Legal System, the over- criminalisation, institutional and structural racism experienced by Black and racially minoritised young people and are committed to use our expertise and skills to offer bespoke support to those most marginalised by wider society.
Mwanzo Project seeks to create opportunities for young people to engage in support that is accessible to them, provide them with opportunities to build relationships with mentors and role-models who they can relate to and unlock their potential.
