Fit For Life Youth CIC Youth Programme Fund

My name is Christopher Herbert, I am the founder of non for profit organisation Fit For Life Youth CIC, I founded the organisation in 2019 with the vision and passion to make an impact in the lives of young people from my local area of North Kensington.

Myself and the following team members, volunteers and Young People from Fit For Life Youth are taking part in The Vitality Big Half Marathon. Zina T, Steven S, James C, Harvey C, Justin B, Jimmy H, Leonardo L, Riaz T, Kit L, Luc A, & Paul L,

Since founding the organisation we have gone on leaps and bounds and worked with hundreds of young people, enriching their lives through sport, health, fitness and wellbeing. One of the projects that I am most proud of is the Youth Project we run 3 days per week between 6pm and 9pm, this project is set up to help combat serious youth violence, our project has been a success and we work with young people from the ages of 13 - 19 on it.

In recent years with current affairs, it has been hard to receive funding to deliver more days as opposed to just three and also to take the young people on trips outside of the area. Me and 3 volunteers will be running The Vitality Big Half Marathon on September 3rd in a bid to raise some much-needed funds to help the continuation of the project. No donation is too small, the team and the young people we work with and I are extremely grateful for whatever you can donate
