The St. Matthew’s Project provides a safe and encouraging place where young people aged 3 – 25 can come together and take part in fun, challenging and high-quality sport and educational programmes. We help children and young people living mainly in the Brixton Rush Common and Brixton Windrush wards of Lambeth fulfil their potential and have a real impact on their community. What began as a kick-about in Brockwell Park 21 years ago is now a thriving youth project, which offers a growing array of programmes and services to over 350 young people each week, bringing them together from 3 different housing estates, which historically would not have anything to do with each other. Our current activities include weekly turn-up-and-play sessions for both sexes; a Family Football and Literacy Programme; estate-based sports sessions; and a Fit for Life programme combining free football with mental health and wellbeing workshops. For those aged 16+, we offer free F.A coaching courses, construction work training opportunities and a volunteering programme.
We align with the following UN Sustainable Development Goals:
