WEST Youth Zone has officially reached level 2 — and what a way to celebrate!
On Sunday 19th April 2026, the Youth Zone came alive as we marked our 2nd birthday with a gaming‑themed celebration, welcoming over 700 young people, families and supporters through our doors for the ultimate WEST Quest Birthday Party.
The day was packed with energy, excitement and community spirit, as our members took centre stage with brilliant live performances including WEST rap group “Shooting Stars”, guests enjoyed delicious hot food from BiteCity CafĂ©, and the building buzzed with gaming‑inspired activities, challenges and fun for everyone.
A highlight of the celebration was the official launch of our brand‑new loyalty programme, ELEVATE, designed to reward engagement, through young people earn points and redeeming amazing prizes!
Throughout the day, we celebrated everything WEST has achieved this year including a total of 3,433 active members, 1,732 new members, over 37,000 attendances, and 20,800 hot meals served. Every visit, every activity and every connection has contributed to creating a safe, inspiring and inclusive space for young people across West London.
Reaching this milestone wouldn’t have been possible without the support of our amazing WEST community. A huge THANK YOU to:
