Blackburn & Darwen Youth Zone is a mid-sized civic and social organization based in Blackburn, in the North West of England. It operates as a youth hub designed to inspire young people to have fun, meet new people, try new activities, and push themselves toward their potential. The organization runs programs focused on personal development, skill-building, and social integration, including a Youth Employability Hub launched in 2021 to support young people furthest from the job market. Through collaborations with local partners, it seeks to broaden opportunities for participation and growth among local youth. In 2025, Blackburn & Darwen Youth Zone expanded its activities by launching a Deaf Support and Learning youth club in collaboration with Deaf Village North West. The group also maintains partnerships with local organizations, including the John Lewis Partnership Foundation.
