Introduction to Resilience Programme

The Amy Winehouse Foundation was set up in 2011 on what would have been Amy’s 28th birthday.

Mitch and Jane Winehouse wanted to carry on Amy’s legacy of helping young people achieve their full potential

Foundation is committed to helping young people make positive choices in their lives

To inform and educate young people about the effects of drug and alcohol misuse and support those seeking help for their problems and those needing on-going support in their recovery
