Churches Together in South London (CTSL) is inviting you to join it during Mental Health Week 2024 to discuss how churches are working together in this area and ways to further resource this great need in our communities, especially with and for young people.

Power to Change, the documentary which launched at the Ritzy Cinema in Brixton, South London, in October 2021 will have its YouTube Premiere on 1 May 2024. It tells the stories of five people: EJ a young man drawn into gang culture from an early age; Lorraine a grieving mother who lost her son to knife-crime as he saved another boy; Gerald, founder of Impact Brixton, who learned to navigate one of London’s most dangerous areas after emigrating from Ghana as a child; Errol a repeat offender with 74 previous convictions; and Nate a former gang-member who was brutally stabbed by a childhood friend. The stories are woven together by Kaysen, a teacher, who passionately believes in supporting young people.

On 18 April 2024, London City Mission would love for you to join them to experience Operation Forgiveness for yourself, and find out how you and your church can get involved. Operation Forgiveness is an early intervention knife crime initiative that equips young people with the power of forgiveness. It's delivered by local churches to local schools.
