We’re passionate about implementing real change within disadvantaged and underserved communities, providing young people with support, guidance and opportunities which enable every young person to achieve their full potential.
Our Mission Statement
Engage
We work at the intersection of sport and youth work, enabling excellent engagement combined with meaningful support for disadvantaged young people.
Reaching underserved and underrepresented communities which are likely to face additional barriers, our engagement is a core strategic component and lays the foundation for our impactful work.
Coupling a youth-led and sport-based approach, whilst valuing lived experience, our ability to engage with those identified as ‘hard to reach’ is uniquely powerful.
Empower
Young people are at the heart of our organisation. We’re committed to empowering the next generation to lead, influence decision-making, and create positive change in their communities. Ensuring their voices are not only heard but truly listened to is central to our mission.
We believe young people are part of the solution, and by placing trust in them – with the right support and guidance – they can lead the way.
Our work at Support Through Sport is driven by a passion to create safe, inclusive spaces and build meaningful relationships that help young people grow, thrive, and achieve their full potential.
Eradicate
We aim to support the eradication of the negative influences which plague our communities. Negative influences such as serious violence, gang culture and knife crime are responsible for the loss of countless young lives across the UK.
At Support Through Sport, we have seen first hand the perils of such negative influences and the destructive divide they create in our most disadvantaged communities.
Our theory of change directly outlines how our sport plus approach can have such a life-changing impact for young people at-risk. As a collective, we will continue to be our best, doing all that we can to tackle these issues within our most vulnerable communities.
