Barratt London has donated £1,500 to The Outrunners to support its youth fitness and mentoring programmes. The East London-based charity provides inclusive running sessions, community activities and mentoring designed to build confidence, improve wellbeing and create opportunities for young people.
Expanding Youth Programmes
The funding will go towards expanding the charity’s structured youth running and movement sessions, helping more young people access safe, supportive environments where they can stay active and connected. The Outrunners works across local communities to encourage physical activity and social engagement, particularly among young people who may not otherwise have access to organised sport.
Commitment to Community
Barratt London said the donation reflects its commitment to supporting community initiatives that promote wellbeing and positive opportunities for young people across the capital. The charity welcomed the support, saying it will make a meaningful difference to its ability to reach and support more young people in East London.
