At Digital Youth Club, we believe talent is 1 everywhere, but opportunity isn’t. We’re creating a free, safe, and inspiring space for young people aged 12–18 to explore their creativity, build digital skills, and find real career pathways.
The challenge
The digital divide is widening, and young people are paying the price. Across the UK, millions lack the skills and opportunities needed to thrive in our digital economy.
Young People
Not in education, employment, or training across the UK
Adults
Lacking essential digital skills, costing the economy billions annually
Creative Sector
Remains largely inaccessible to young people from disadvantaged backgrounds
Industry workers
From privileged backgrounds—excluding vast pools of untapped talent
Talent exists in every postcode – opportunity doesn’t. We’re here to change that.
Why it matters
Too many young people are locked out before they even begin. By opening doors to digital learning and creative spaces, we unlock potential, purpose, and belonging.
Our Solution
The Digital Youth Club is more than a programme—it’s a movement. We’re building community-based digital media hubs where young people can thrive.
