Our Story
How ACYC Was Founded and Why It Matters
Active Children and Youth Centre (ACYC) was founded in response to the growing need for safe, supportive spaces for children and young people in the Haringey community. We saw many children struggling with delayed school placements, exclusion from mainstream education, and a lack of positive activities, often leaving them vulnerable to negative influences. ACYC was created to change this. From the beginning, our focus has been on providing structure, routine, and opportunity through education support, mentoring, and community-based programmes. Over the years, we have continued to grow, working closely with families, schools, and local partners to help children and young people build confidence, develop skills, and create brighter futures.
