Restless Development is a non profit global agency that supports the collective power of young leaders to create a better world.

Simon on the Streets
Registered Charity Number: 1165317
The main aim of Simon on the Streets is to provide emotional and practical support to homeless and vulnerable people. We recognise that emotional support has a high-value and understand that building a quality relationship with clients will underpin any support given. This emotional support evolves over time to underpin practical support around advocacy and accessing specialist services. In an ideal world, Simon on the Streets wouldn’t exist and so one of our main aims is to end homelessness.
Young Lives vs Cancer
Registered Charity Number: 1107328
Young Lives vs Cancer’s vision is that everyone under 25 with cancer, and their families, will get the support and help they need during their cancer treatment and beyond. When a young person is diagnosed with cancer it threatens everything, for them and their family. At a time when they should be busy being children, enjoying their rollercoaster teenage years or finding their feet at uni, life becomes full of fear. We want them to thrive, not just survive, and for everyone to join in that mission.
