From the Street
to the Studio

Street Klean Project is a national intervention programme dedicated to diverting young people from street violence and knife crime. By providing professional workshops in music production and photography, we offer at-risk youth a creative path out of the streets and into sustainable skills.

We were founded when two brothers, united by grief after losing a cousin to knife crime, made a decision that would change lives. In the face of tragedy, they chose action — refusing to accept the silence and inaction that surrounds this epidemic. Their message was simple: enough is enough. Today, Street Klean Project is the direct result of that conviction. We fight every day to protect young people from the same fate, channelling pain into purpose and using creativity as our most powerful tool. If we don't step up for these young people, no one will — so we have taken it upon ourselves to do everything in our power to keep them safe, focused, and off the streets.

01
Safe Creative Spaces

Moving young people from high-risk environments into professional studio spaces where creativity replaces conflict.

02
Real Skills, Real Futures

Participants leave with tangible skills in music production or photography — not just a hobby, but a profession.

03
Authentic Outreach

Our mentors come from the same streets. We have the credibility to reach those who others can't.

"I came in thinking this wasn't for me. Six months later I've got my own photography portfolio and I'm shooting for local businesses. The streets don't pull me the same way anymore."

Beyond the Studio.
Building Connections.

Street Klean Project × 21 Degrees

Skills alone don’t build a future — networks do. That’s why Street Klean Project partners with 21 Degrees to host regular events for youth and university students, creating spaces where connections are made, ambitions are shared, and new doors open.

These events bring together young people from our programmes alongside students from higher education — bridging worlds that rarely meet, and proving that background is no barrier to belonging in professional and creative spaces.

🤝
Real Connections

Structured networking in relaxed, creative environments — not formal, not intimidating, just people building genuine relationships.

🎓
University & Youth Crossover

We believe young people from all backgrounds deserve access to the same rooms. Our events create that level playing field.

🌱
Community Beyond the Programme

Our events extend the Street Klean family — so that the support, inspiration, and community doesn’t end when a workshop does.

Real People.
Real Change.

Every young person who walks through our doors brings a different story. What they share when they leave is a skill, a sense of purpose, and a future that looks nothing like the street they came from.

Before Street Klean I had no direction. Now I am producing tracks that people are actually listening to. The mentors treated me like a professional from day one — that changed everything.

Street Klean gave me somewhere to be and something to care about. I have learned more here in eight months than I did in years of school. I can see a real career in this now.
