Thank you Mayor for your support!
"The work the AHOY Centre charity is delivering on the River Thames is both innovative and inspiring. By working with those most in need of support they are helping those with disabilities and providing excellent diversionary activities for young people . Taking those most at risk off the streets and away from the path of negative and anti-social behaviour they provide extensive training and, most importantly, teach the citizenship & life skills that are fundamental tools for finding future employment ” The Mayor of London
