Epic is a community based charity that uses support, networks and diversionary activities to enrich the lives of children, young people and families. We act as a bridge between communities, families and school. Epic Partners is a small organisation with a big name and big ambitions and provides services and activities to support children, young people and their families to achieve their aspirations. Although increasing knife crime, poverty and inequality do have a huge impact on our communities, we focus on the incredible resilience, capability and creativity inherent within our communities. We don't want the areas we work in to be defined solely by broad-brush definitions such as "deprived neighbourhoods". In response to this Epic Partners works to care for, support and help families, children and young people thrive and realise their full potential despite the negative perception of the area they live in. This is a significant challenge - the deprivation cannot be ignored altogether.
