Another great addition to Youth Unity is a new concept combing FOOTBALL, BASKETBALL, VOLLEYBALL, NETBALL & HANDBALL in one game … phew yep, it makes you feel tired thinking about it, but Youth Unity was blown away when we first saw this played out and knew we had to have it on board the festival.
Fresh, exciting and innovative fits right in with what our YOUTH need. Switch Sports will be hosting a serious of games and fun activities on the festival with view to bringing the concept on board in our local area!
Are you SWITCHED!!
Please get in touch with us if you would be able to help us leading up the festival and or on the day
We will feed and water you on the day <3 and guarantee you will have lots of fun, plus we can offer a certificate to show you took part which could help with work experience, job references.

Youth Unity would like to give a HUGE HUGE thank you to THE BOW BELLS pub, staff and patreons for their amazing support <3 we are heavily relying on the generosity of businesses and the public to make this project last long after the event. We all do this project with nogovernement funding and as volunteers, so please if you want to support and get a stake in the project please reach out.
Knife Crime is continuing to rise and we are working to help young people use sports and music as a better alternative, plus lets not forget there are plenty that are great and we need a day to shine the light on all the amazing young people that of course a chance for families to get together in harmony!!
its greatly appreciated and would’nt expect anything less from a pub in the good old Eastend!! #thanks #donation
Not forgetting our amazing ambassador Léandra Maleix who has supported us from the very start!
Our very own MC CKP will be hosting the live music stage, where he will be bigging up young emerging artists, playing the beats that the young people want to hear … yes we will have grime but it will be conscious music!
The Legendary Mc CKP has won many prestigious awards for his contribution to the Garage scene. His achievements have helped him become a major player across the globe on the underground scene with his unique, versatile style and voice.
His energy, gaining crowd participation and whipping them into a frenzy is second to none.
You have to call Mc CKP the Originator, why? Whose catchphrase’s are these? “OLIE OLIE OLIE”. (That’s right, the first MC to bring that to the club scene). “Give me a sign, if you want a rewind”, (the first MC to summon DJ’s to rewind tunes back in the day when DJ’s didn’t rewind tunes). “When I say!!!!!!!! You say!!!!!!” to name a few. He is all about setting styles and trends amongst his peers.
Few people can lay claim to being the definitive voice of their profession. Mc CKP is definitely one of those people. And most important a genuinely nice guy.

Where it all began at Hackney Marsh
this started as a picnic in the park, bringing organisations together to share ideas etc, and we felt incorporating the football would be a good way to engage the young people along to the event. It was incredibly well received and this is how YOUTH UNITY was born! all from a telephone conversation and passion.
We have always been very lucky to have so much love and support and time donated for free to support our young people and community!
This project wasrun in partnership with South London & Maudsley Trust, working with a group of young people with high level mental health needs. The short video and podcast helped to map their voices and journey through the pandemic.
This podcast captured the voices of the young people throughout the workshops, some of the statements are hard hitting and show how young people are effected by the pandemic. Lets hope that there will be resources in place when we are through this!
