Our work

MAC-UK works with several different projects all across London. Below is a map showing where they have been located.

We are disseminating our approach by working with innovative statutory and third sector organisations who work with the most excluded young people. The projects below all draw on MAC-UK’s approach – Putting into practice the principles outlined here.
