“During assessment we were particularly impressed with your commitment to your beneficiaries and the way you engage them through your youth advisory board which helps to select the accredited courses they provide.”

“Teen Action have been part of our Hackney commissioned consortium for a number of years. They are a well-respected and popular organisation within the community and have proved their ability to deliver high-quality provision with good outcomes for their young people. They have also successfully adapted their services during covid-19 allowing them to successfully and safely remain engaged with young people.”

“I have observed that their approach to project development and delivery is very thorough. Effective management and monitoring ensures excellent progress for beneficiaries. First-hand reports from the young people tell me that they benefit from a wide range of projects and training programmes and gain skills that equip them for employment and for life.”

“The trustees were very interested to learn more about your work, and liked your sensitive and gentle approach to raising aspirations and expanding horizons. They were very impressed that you have achieved the London Youth Gold Quality Mark, and felt that this demonstrated that you already achieve high standards in your work.”

“Despite all the challenges you’ve faced during the pandemic it’s clear that Teen Action has really stepped up and remained a great source of support and guidance to the young women you work with.”

“Smallwood is thrilled to have helped Teen Action to continue supporting economically vulnerable women in your community. Thank you for including outcomes in your report, it’s a really valuable insight for us and a reflection of the vital work you do.”
