A Fantastic Win for Furzedown Youth Centre

We’re thrilled to share some incredible news with our community! On the upcoming series of Celebrity Mastermind, produced by Hindsight / Hat Trick Productions for BBC One, broadcaster and local Wandsworth resident Maryam Moshiri chose Furzedown Youth Centre (FYC) as her nominated charity.

The episode was filmed on 22nd June and is due to be broadcast later this year or in 2026. Even better — Maryam’s appearance on the show secured an amazing £3,000 prize for FYC!

Why This Matters for Our Community

At Furzedown Youth Centre, we’re dedicated to creating a safe, supportive, and inspiring space for young people in Wandsworth. Donations like this one have a real, lasting impact. From after-school programmes and mentoring, to creative workshops and sports, every contribution helps us provide opportunities that build confidence and skills for life.

Thanks to Maryam’s generosity and determination on Celebrity Mastermind, this £3,000 boost will directly benefit the young people who rely on our centre. We’ll be keeping our community updated on exactly how these funds are used — whether it’s for new equipment, special projects, or expanded services.

A Huge Thank You to Maryam Moshiri
