IYDA

IYDA An inclusive youth development association for Farsi speaking communities. IYDA is a community group based in Woolwich in south east London.

Established since 1989 we continue to be the sole community group to provide support for the Iranian and extended Farsi community. If you are of an Iranian background born in the UK or abroad with residency, refugee or asylum seeker status then we can offer you support. Either for those wishing to connect with a larger Farsi speaking network or for British born individuals who want to learn more a

bout their cultural heritage, IYDA does not discriminate. If you are interested in joining IYDA you can attend our Farsi language classes, or you are welcome to drop in and visit us one Saturday, contact us for more details.
