About 
Just 4 Youth ( ) is an organisation aimed at Muslim youth living in a multicultural British society, instilling values of tolerance, respect, contribution and leadership based upon an Islamic ethos.
is primarily a London based organisation set-up by professional engineers, IT consultants, government employed youth workers, doctors, teachers and university students with the sole purpose of changing the state of under-achieving Muslim youth in the UK.
The situation of Muslims living here is quite distressing with them under-achieving in most areas, as the following statistics show:
-Pakistani Muslims are three times more likely to be jobless than Hindus.
-Indian Muslims are twice as likely to be unemployed than Indian Hindus.

J4Y's vision is to ensure every Muslim youth in the UK reaches his / her maximum potential and becomes a high achiever in all walks of life. J4Y have realised that this can only be done by establishing a solid foundation during the early years of an individual’s life which can then be enhanced and built upon in order to achieve success.
Recently, have teamed up with the Muslim Scouts Fellowship (MSF) and the official UK Scout Association to start-up the first Muslim Scouts group in the Tooting area.
The key aims and objectives of can be summarised as follows:
- Encourage and Educate the youth with Islamic values and from a secular point of view to increase their future prospects.
- Establish a sense of direction, purpose and vision in the minds of the youth, making them understand that they must set themselves certain targets and goals and work towards achieving them.
- Enhance the skills of the youth by taking them through the various stages of personal development while making it an enjoyable experience.
- Eradicate the problems faced by many of today’s youth, primarily, drugs, sex and violence through education and one to one counselling based on friendship.
- Establish a sense of community, brotherhood and mutual care between the youth.
- Establish a centre point of contact for the youth where they can discuss their issues in confidence and socialise with other Muslim youth.
- Establish tolerance and understanding in the minds of the youth who live in a multi-cultural society, respecting people of other faiths and backgrounds.
