Set up in May 2006, MyGeneration provides solutions for the social challenges affecting our young people, their families and the communities in which they live
We aim to mentor potential community leaders to inspire young people to lead more socially responsible lives and to open up a life of opportunity through specific empowerment projects. Drawing on our networks of local and national heroes and role models, we seek to roll out our membership to harness the energy and talent of young people throughout the UK. |

| MyGeneration is a registered charity based within the diverse and multi-cultural area of North Kensington, West London. Our aim is to address social and economic problems that affect young people and their families within our local and neighbouring areas, by encouraging informal social interaction with a nurturing but disciplined approach. We aim to steer a new generation of disenfranchised young people away from a life of crime, drugs and anti-social behaviour to a life of employment, self-reliance, education and social responsibility. We believe sustainable change must be driven from within and teach our beneficiaries to help themselves. |
MyGeneration recognises that the issues of crime, drugs and anti-social behaviour are deeply entrenched and will take generations to put them right - and that's why we are starting now! We seek to empower parents to take control of children's lives by understanding the pressure modern children and teenagers are under. We will seek to provide practical advice and support so that children can have a future planned out by parents and not by someone else or circumstance. |

Hi I'm Shaun Bailey, Chief Operating Officer of MyGeneration and community activist. I have worked in this field for the past 18 years with various youth and community groups, but MyGeneration is my biggest venture to date. It has been hard work to get this far, but we have overcome many obstacles to reach this milestone of setting up our base of operations. This has been done by the hard work of our trustees and local community, who provide us with time, energy expertise and most importantly belief. The other important element in this journey has been our funders, who had the foresight and trust to back this fledgling organisation.
We hope to act as a model of best practice and inspiration to any and all community groups nationwide |
