THE AREA WHERE KIDS' CITY WORKS

We have schemes based in Lambeth and Wandsworth. The Index of Deprivation 2000 shows areas in which Kids' City operates include wards ranked amongst the 10% most deprived in the country.

WHO WORKS FOR KIDS' CITY

We employ approximately 80 staff, 8 full time and the remainder part time and utilise over 100 volunteers. All our staff have recent current police checks, and centre staff are all trained and qualified in play work.

All staff and volunteers have access to the fully accredited training programmes.

HOW IS KIDS' CITY FINANCED

We charge fees for attendance, but these only make up less than half the cost of running each sheme - keeping the price affordable to families, providing subsidised places and free places for those who need them. The rest of the funds we need to keep things running come from modest grants from local authorities, and a constant fundraising effort to gain support from charitable trusts and the like.

You can help too. We accept donations from our supporters on line - click below to donate
