The Boys Clubhouse

This week, Jews around the world move out of their homes. Into temporary dwellings. Into the Sukkah. 🌿

For eight days we live with the reminder that nothing is permanent. That shelter is a gift, not a given. That vulnerability is part of the human experience.

We sit under the stars. We feel the wind. And then we go back inside.

But for some of our boys, that feeling doesn't end after eight days.

For them, temporary is Tuesday. It's the sofa they're not sure they can stay on. The room they might lose by the weekend. The street they've already spent nights on.

No Yom Tov to mark the end of it. No warm home waiting on the other side.

That's the reality we walk into every single day at The Boys Clubhouse.

We find the roof. We sort the paperwork. We sit with them through the uncertainty until slowly it starts to feel a little more permanent. A little more theirs.

Chag Sameach to everyone celebrating. 🍊🌿

May this Sukkos be a reminder that a home is never something to take for granted — and that there is always someone who needs help finding one.

We just launched something we're incredibly proud of. 🎉

123custom.co.uk — a brand new personalised gifts website, selling custom embroidered and printed mugs, towels, baby bibs, sweatshirts and more.

But here's what makes this one special.

It wasn't built by an agency. It wasn't outsourced. It was designed and coded entirely in-house by one of our boys — through our Clubhouse Business Enterprise (CBE), the programme where our young men don't just receive support, they build real skills. Real businesses. Real futures.

Online selling. Customer service. Packaging. Dispatch. The full picture of what it takes to run something properly.

And now — a live website to show for it.

Every single penny from every order goes directly to The Boys Clubhouse — supporting young men across NW London who need mentoring, therapy, housing support, and a reason to get up in the morning.

So if you've got a birthday coming up, a new baby to celebrate, a gift to give — go shop with us.

You'll get something beautiful. And you'll change a life doing it.

This week, we had the privilege of welcoming Peter Woolf to The Boys Clubhouse. 🙏

He**in. Prison. Crime. A life that by every measure should have ended in tragedy.

Instead — Peter sat in a room with our boys and told them the truth. All of it. No filter. No polished PR version. Just the raw, honest story of what it took to turn a life like that around and come out the other side making genuine, positive change.

The room was electric.

These are young men who have heard a lot of talk in their lives. They can spot inauthenticity from a mile away. But Peter? They leaned in. They listened. They asked questions. They stayed long after they needed to.

And that's the thing about lived experience — it lands differently. You can't argue with someone who's been there. You can't dismiss it. It gets through in a way that no workshop, no leaflet, no professional advice ever quite can.

This is why we create these moments. Not just mentoring and therapy behind closed doors — but bringing the right people into the room. People who prove that change is possible. That the path you're on isn't the only one.

A massive, heartfelt thank you to Peter Woolf. You gave our boys something they'll carry with them. 💙

If you haven't heard Peter's story — look him up. Extraordinary human being.

Everyone's posting their summers. Boats. Beaches. Exotic places. ☀️

Love seeing it. Genuinely.

But I want to talk about a different kind of summer.

For most of our boys, living alone, getting by, a summer dream isn't a villa in Sardinia.

Sometimes the dream is a takeaway. A decent meal. Someone to sit with.

While LinkedIn fills up with holidays, our staff are on a rota. Who's in today? Who's on call? Who's picking up shopping for the boy who can't face going out? Who's sitting with someone in a low moment?

There's no out-of-office at The Boys Clubhouse.

But here's the thing about this work, you find joy in the small things.

Next week we're taking the boys to Thorpe Park. 🎢

A day of chaos, queues, and probably a lot of screaming. And for some of them, it'll be the highlight of their year.

That's enough for us.
