WHO WE ARE
We are Options 4 Change and fantastic things are happening here. We are a registered charity based in the London Borough of Lambeth and we are all about children and young people. Since 2005 we have provided various support services and projects for our service-users in our aim to inspire social and academic excellence.
Lambeth is a very challenging area for children and young people to thrive in. Communities across the borough are affected by youth violence, gangs, schools exclusions and numerous social welfare issues. The residents and community services have tripled their efforts to address the issues for themselves or via local statutory and voluntary services.
Our primary services are delivered by our advocates and caseworkers to tackle issues and need involving:
Social Welfare and Well-Being
Educational Sustainment
Personal Development
Homelessness
We have a strong presence in our local community and have worked with several hundreds of service-users over the years we have operated. On a daily basis our staff and volunteers engage with our service-users in their schools, homes, community spaces and at our office.

We have recently relaunched our Mango Tree Workshops to support families to understand and respond to the risks of gang culture, youth violence, and exploitation. We've been delivering these sessions across the local area, working closely with schools and community groups. Through creative activities and open conversations, we help young people build resilience and give parents the tools to keep them safe.
