FST is a charity and alternative education provider. We have been delivering practical and emotional support, as well as education for vulnerable young people for nearly 20 years. Working closely with schools, PRU’s, local authorities and other youth professionals day to day. We care for, empower, and give hope to our young people to realise their own potential. Aiming to empower our young people to return to full time education, in addition to developing the soft skills needed to make positive and healthy choices in their lives.
We are committed to making a lasting impact in Wandsworth and neighbouring boroughs. We have built a reputation for quality provision that has a family and community feel that allows our young people to engage and learn in a safe and nurturing environment.
Our longstanding service to the youth of Wandsworth has allowed us to create amazing relationships with other youth organisations in the area. This has led to the formation of Youth Battersea, a partnership of Battersea based youth organisations who work collaboratively on joint projects and share ideas, resources and skills.
Almost uniquely in our sector, we have an open-door policy to make sure that our young people feel supported long after they have finished their programme with us.
We run projects which encompass personal, social development and life skills. Our flagship mentoring scheme includes one-to-one and small group sessions. The focus is on the outcome, but also on the journey. In addition we collaborate with Caius House to deliver their after-school programme.
