Programme Design and Delivery
Programme Design and Delivery
We design programmes for young people aged 10–25, supporting them through critical life moments, particularly those facing multiple disadvantage. We use a test and learn approach to ensure our work is responsive, relevant, and impactful.
Our Test and Learn Approach
Addressing social injustice requires more than delivering rigid services at scale. We work alongside young people and families to understand what drives meaningful, long term change by using Freirian principles to address power imbalances through dialogue and sharing of power. By piloting ideas, finding balance between re-design and stability, gathering insight, and adapting in practice, we build a deeper understanding of what works both within our programmes and across the wider systems young people navigate. This learning is intended to inform future delivery and contribute to broader systems change.
Core Principles
Youth Led Approach
Informed by Freirian principles of dialogue and power sharing, young people shape every stage of our programmes from co creating, to designing through to delivery, reflection and reporting. This ensures our work reflects lived experience and always remains relevant to those we support.
Opportunities for Young People
We offer young people support with future pathways. This includes paid and voluntary opportunities with EYC, peer mentoring, advocacy and connections to education, training, employment, and external organisations.
Transformational Opportunities
Young people can access new spaces, experiences, and industries that broaden horizons, build confidence, and expand what feels possible.
High Quality, Relational Support
Programmes are delivered by experienced practitioners with professional and academic expertise and lived experience, enabling strong relationships and informed support.
Impact and Learning
We embed reflection and reporting in all programmes to understand what works and share learning to influence wider systems.
What Happens Next
We use what we learn to strengthen future delivery, scale effective approaches, and contribute to wider systems change.

Sports Transitions Programme
For many young people from disadvantaged backgrounds, sport offers space to move, improve wellbeing, and feel safe. The transition into adulthood often leaves them unable to access physical activity spaces. This programme supports 16–25-year-olds to stay engaged with physical activity and supports with the 'cliff edge' transition.
16-19 Programme
Further Education between the ages of 16-19 can come as a shock to the system for many. Have a read on how our piloted work has shaped our programme in this area of FE, where we combine weekly mentoring, compassionate mind training, life skills and support to help young people succeed in education and beyond.
Primary to Secondary Transitions Programme
Primary to secondary transitions are one of the most under researched but critical moments in a young persons education journey. We seek to understand how support for and around a young person with this vital transition can inform more impactful conversations around prevention and early intervention.
