Creating and protecting community spaces
Build Up builds the power of young people to shape where they live, and to change who can make decisions about London.
We support young people aged 10 – 25 to lead the design and construction of community spaces. Bringing young people, builders, designers and decision makers together, equipping young people with the tools to make change happen.
Our inclusive, freely accessible spaces support local communities for years to come.
“Young people are not just the future, we are here now. Build Up makes spaces which serve our daily needs”
Young people are usually excluded from decisions about their communities, and taught they can’t change the world around them. At Build Up, we’re working to challenge this.
