Who We Are

24/8 Impact CIC strengthens the youth and community sector by supporting organisations, developing young changemakers, and increasing access to funding.

We operate at the intersection of community insight, organisational development, and youth leadership, ensuring impact is not only created, but sustained.

The Problem

Across London, youth and community organisations are:

At the same time, many young people with lived experience of these challenges lack the pathways, resources, and support to lead solutions.

This creates a critical gap between:

The scale of the challenge is significant:

Youth service funding in London fell from £145 million to £42 million between 2011 and 2021, a 71% reduction (Youth Authority, 2023)

66% of organisations report increased demand, while 83% say their funding has decreased (UK Youth, 2022)

Our Solution: The 24/8 Circular Impact Model

We take an ecosystem approach, not siloed programmes.

Our model connects organisations, individuals, and funding to create continuous, community-led impact.

Our Model in Action

We strengthen organisations, develop individuals, and fund solutions.

This creates a continuous cycle of sustainable impact.

This is what we mean by 24/8. Impact that continues beyond moments, programmes, or funding cycles.

Why 24/8

We do not just deliver programmes.
We build capacity, leadership, and systems that last.

Our Vision

A London where:

We do not just deliver programmes.
We build people.
We strengthen organisations.
We resource communities.

Because sustainable impact does not happen once.
It continues. It becomes 24/8.
