Anything is Possible

Once a building far away, now it’s standing here today. When they said it would be impossible, we came together and were unstoppable. A place now filled with hopes and dreams, a place where we nurture positive schemes. Solving challenges in collaboration, always thinking about transformation. To make a difference to everyone, never forgetting why we’d begun. Onwards we continue with our friends, and so the journey never ends.

Our Vision

Our approach is organic, whilst we know our vision, we are always exploring new opportunities to develop activities and projects that are effective and ultimately benefit children, young people, their families and the wider community of Leeds.In the complex world we live in, with increasing challenges, we believe in the need to be responsive to people’s circumstances considering local, national and global events. For example during the COVID-19 pandemic we distributed over 28,000 portions of food to the most vulnerable.

We have supported young refugees fleeing war-torn countries developing their self-resilience and helped young people at risk of exploitation, gangs and crime through our youth programmes.We also believe in changing and challenging the status quo, processes and structures so that young people get the best chance in life. This means doing things differently, innovating, collaborating with other organisations and pushing the boundaries to make a positive difference.

CATCH relies on your generous donations to keep the lights on! Our community space provides a much needed hub for the community in particular for vulnerable young people, so they have somewhere safe to go, something to do and someone to talk to 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year.
