Catch22 (charity)

Catch22 is a social business, a not for profit business with a social mission which operates in the United Kingdom (England and Wales). Catch22 can trace its roots back over 238 years, to the formation of The Philanthropic Society in 1788. Catch22 designs and delivers services that build resilience and aspiration in people and communities.

The organisation describes itself as “having the heart of a charity and the mind-set of a business”.

Catch22 was formed in 2008 by the merge of UK young people's organisations Rainer and Crime Concern.
