McLemore Konschnik LLP has chosen New Horizon Youth Centre as its 2025 Charity of the Year. The law firm has set a target to raise £20,000 for the charity in 2025.
New Horizon Youth Centre works with young people, aged 16 to 24, who are unsafe or experiencing homelessness in London. New Horizon’s mission is to provide the same opportunities for all young people in London, regardless of their background or circumstances, so they can reach their full potential and live the lives they want. New Horizon was founded in 1967 by Lord Longford to address the escalating crisis of young Londoners caught up in homelessness, drug use and the criminal justice system. Today, New Horizon continues to work with young people who need the most support and continues to provide a safe space for young people experiencing homelessness in the capital. New Horizon supports young people through outreach in the community and in prison through their accommodation projects across London and in their Camden day centre.
McLemore Konschnik LLP partner Kristin Konschnik said:
With the continuing housing and cost of living crisis a particular concern in London, we are pleased to support New Horizon Youth Centre as our 2025 Charity of the Year. New Horizon focuses on long term plans for at risk children and young people, providing direct, wraparound support, including housing, advice and healthcare services.
