Testimonials

URBOND Youth Club is absolutely brilliant, nothing like any other youth club around Portsmouth. It is supervised so well and I trust the staff implicitly with my kids. We are extremely lucky to have URBOND.

I was welcomed into the Youth Development Programme via basketball sessions, which helped me improve my CV and obtain employment. URBOND is the perfect organisation to solve most issues with the youth. I cannot thank them enough for helping me change my life around.
