Join ClinksSafer London is a leading London charity working with young Londoners and their families affected by violence and exploitation.
Through one to one intervention and targeted group work we’re supporting young Londoners to move onto the positive futures that they deserve. We put young Londoners at the centre of their support, focusing on them and their needs. By building strong, trusting relationships we gain an insight into their world, begin to understand what they need and together find the best ways to keep them safe.
Understanding that young Londoners’ lives are shaped by the world in which they live, we work not only with them and their families, but also their peer networks and directly within the community and the places where they live and spend their time.
With a footprint in every borough in London, we build trusting, professional partnerships to embed our approaches and work towards achieving our vision of a city that is safer for all the young Londoners who live here.

Supporting information
Safer London is an independent charity with a track record of supporting young Londoners who are affected by violence in the community. We deliver one on one support to young women and men and their families. We have experience in direct delivery of interventions with gang-affected young people and are accomplished in delivering transformational resettlement support geared towards reducing re-offending.
We seek to build strong and trusted relationships with each young Londoner we work with. We advocate on their behalf and work alongside them to decrease risk, increase safety and improve lives. Through these relationships and by looking at the causes behind violence and exploitation in the wider context of their lives, we put the right support systems in place. This includes emotional wellbeing support, assistance in accessing employment and training, housing advocacy, specialist support for girls and women and dedicated family workers.
