A teammate like no other
We believe athletes are inspirational role models. The positivity of their can-do, never quit attitude could benefit us all. We provide specialist training to enable these sportspeople to harness their unique skillset and pass it on to others, working directly with young people and also with our corporate partners. It’s a winning combination which gets incredible results.

Dame Kelly Holmes Trust is a youth development charity founded on the belief that every young person needs a champion. Just one person believing in you can be the difference between fully committing or quitting.
We train up existing and former champions from the world of elite sport to pass on their winning mindset through coaching and mentoring.
From sports star to guide, they help young people who are facing adversity develop the positive behaviours and skills they need to succeed in education, work and life.
Our transformational wellbeing programmes change lives. With a renewed purpose, get up and go attitude and fresh motivation, we’ve seen young people turn their futures around against all odds.
