SYDRC

Somali Youth Development Resource Centre (SYDRC) was established in September 2000 as a federation of 5 main Somali organisations in the London borough of Camden.

In 2007, SYDRC’s changed its management structure to become the only Somali youth lead organisation in the UK. The majority of trustees elected were young people between the ages of 18-30 years of age. A youth advisory board was set up to provide a stronger voice to the service users and also became a mechanism to feed into the Management Committee. The new face of SYDRC has made a huge difference to the lives of young Somali’s and encouraged more young role models to volunteer  .
