About Us
Founded in 2019 by Celia Tummings, Lerato Community Initiative is a social enterprise based in Brixton. Working mainly, but not exclusively, with the Black community in London, we focus on delivering excellent youth programmes, activities, and guidance. Our goal is to inspire personal and collective growth and divert young people from chaotic lifestyles. Lerato translates as ‘love’ in the Lesotho language of South Africa, and this encapsulates our values of love, mutual respect, and positive engagement. Get in touch today to learn more.
