The Cause
The auction will raise funds to support an outreach youth programme in Westminster, in addition to young artists through Positive View Foundation. Outreach youth work involves meeting young people where they are at, in their communities. Youth workers aim to reach out and make contact with young people who may have little access to provision and introduce them to what's on offer. The aim of the work is to enable young people to develop their full potential as individuals and as members of our Westminster community.
