Who we are
FAST London is a Christian youth charity committed to changing the lives of 10-19-year-olds in Battersea and South Lambeth. Our vision is a community where young people grow up in healthy relationships (with authority figures and peers), grow resilience to deal with the challenges of life and hope and work towards an aspirational future.

According to 2021 JSNA Wandsworth reports and 2020 Trust for London report
"FAST is a phenomenal organisation that helps support young people growing up on Patmore Estate. The work they do is invaluable in offering mentorship and direction to those often-facing deprivation and difficulties. This not only improves the lives of the young people they work with, but supports and strengthens the surrounding community as a whole…As a local councillor I have seen their work first hand, and have built relationships with their brilliant leadership team. FAST is precisely the kind of organisation that needs support."
Cllr Aydin Dikerdem, Labour Councillor for Queenstown Ward
