| Description: | ASCEND is based in the heart of South Oxhey, an area nationally recognised as a regeneration district with social deprivation issues. As a community based charity, ASCEND’s work is all about moving people forward, challenging their perceived barriers to education and training; providing people with more choice and control over their lives. Thanks to ASCEND, many local people now have the confidence, self-esteem and skills to find a route to employment, some for the first time in their lives. ASCEND also works with young people threatened with homelessness, providing a confidential housing and on-going support service, and emergency short-term accommodation for young homeless people in crisis. |
