Youth Programmes based at the National Maritime Museum, Queen’s House, and Cutty Sark work primarily with young people aged 13-24, who live, work, or study in Greenwich. From April 2025 we’d like to also work with young people living in Lewisham, Tower Hamlets, Bexley and our other neighboring boroughs.
