Focused on their Future
Our goal is to improve the wellbeing of 10,000 young people across the UK, who are facing adversity and challenges. With our transformational programmes, led by world class athlete mentors, we aim to level the playing field and stack the odds in their favour.
Transforming lives
Every young person deserves an equal opportunity to be the best version of themselves. We work with young people who need the support of a role model to unlock their potential. When someone believes in you, it’s incredible what you can do.
Rewriting the
Gameplan
Our programmes boost wellbeing, increase confidence, strengthen resilience and build self-esteem so individuals can fulfil their true potential. We work in education, community and health settings connecting young people with their own skills and strengths through in person and digital mentoring sessions; and connecting them with their local community through hands-on practical social action.
Shaping Futures
Our schools-based programmes support young people who would benefit from a positive role model to achieve their potential. Our world class athlete mentors work with students to improve confidence, resilience and wellbeing during 8 three-hour sessions in your school, equipping them with a winning mindset that’s ready to achieve.
Backed by the Best
Our athlete mentors champion young people, lighting a spark and providing personal, social and emotional support every step of the way. Our programmes change lives. With a renewed purpose, get up and go attitude and fresh motivation, we’ve seen young people turn their futures around.
