Catch22 Young Londoners’ Victim Service

How we can support you

The service provides young people with emotional and practical support and advocacy.  The service is free and confidential to access, and the crime does not have to be reported to the police.

The pan-London service aims to ensure that young people achieve the following outcomes:

• Enhanced ability to cope and build resilience, enabling them to move forward with daily life
• Improved knowledge and a greater sense of empowerment
• Reduced risk of further victimisation and increased feelings of safety
• Improved health and well-being
• Access to the right support when needed

The service also includes an online portal which provides training resources and support for adults and youth professionals across the community, helping to build London-wide capacity and resilience.

How we work

Catch22 works with three key partners to deliver the Young Londoners’ Victim Service; Advance, London Youth and Kooth.  

Advance deliver specialist female-gendered case management support to young women and girls who are victims and witnesses of crime in London.  

London Youth deliver the Trusted Youth Allies (TYA) programme, which includes a training curriculum and range of resources for community champions across the capital.  

The Young Londoners’ Victim Service will also provide children and young people with access to Kooth.com, a safe, confidential and personalised digital mental health service.
