In the charity's own words
SAFE has two main programmes, one in the U.K. and one overseas. In the UK we aim to increase civic participation and improve social harmony amongst typically hard to reach young people, such as NEETs. We also deliver a non-mainstream development education programme. Overseas we support locally led and empowering poverty response programmes for marginalised people all around the world.
