Young boys and girls are encouraged from the earliest age to develop individual skills on the ball and to let their personality be expressed in their style of play.

Gaining the trust and respect of these often spirited youngsters is central to keeping them on track. Afewee expects our athletes to give of their best.

Based in Lambeth, trainees are from a wide variety of ages and ethnic backgrounds. The project’s inclusive ethos attracts many single parents and has a positive approach to disability.
For many it represents their first experience of adult education and employment preparation. Basic literacy and numeracy skills are integrated within the curriculum when needed.

Fees and materials are subsidised by the Charity with a nominal student contribution, which is waived under hardship circumstances.
All Sewn Up now offers a Community Learning Program (CLP) which is self-funding. Some of the income generated helps to subsidise the City & Guilds courses.

Care Trade U.K.
Care Trade believes passionately that all young people should be given the opportunity to reach their potential and lead fulfilling lives. Our ambition is to create new opportunities and choices for young people with autism.
1 in 100 children have an autistic spectrum condition that is over 8,000 school leavers every year: 800 of them live in London. Currently less than 25% go on to further or higher education and only 15% of all adults with autism work and just 4% go on to live independently.
There is evidence that with the right support many, many more of these young people are able and would like to work and to play an active part in their community. And for those whose autism limits their ability to become fully independent, they too need more choices and opportunities to live full and happy lives.
CareTrade founders Katharine Doré OBE and Karen Edwards are both parents of teenage autistic sons and were Founders and Trustees of Ambitious about Autism. Since the launch of our first pilot in January 2010, we have worked with over 90 young Londoners with autism. This is just the beginning.

NOPA - Number 1 Performing Arts
The children and young people are referred to us because of their challenging behaviour which may be putting themselves or others at risk of harm or exclusion.
We support the child to explore the impact of these behaviours and develop ways to express themselves and manage their behaviour in a more positive way.
The child becomes self-aware and gains skills that will be taken with them into adulthood.
This process works best if the adults around the child are fully engaged too. In this way, we encourage parents and carers, teachers or any other significant adult to honestly evaluate their relationships and interactions.
We provide practical and emotional support and guidance to enable positive change and improved relationships with the child.
This child-centred approach allows us to ensure that “Every Child Matters” but also ensures the important people in their lives thrive too.

Renaissance Foundation
Renaissance Foundation inspires young people facing various serious challenges to fulfil their unique potential. We focus exclusively on three hard-to-reach groups: young carers, young patients suffering from life-long/life-limiting illnesses and transitioning from children’s care to adult care, and young pupils from deprived backgrounds (‘school pupils at risk’). All are referred to us by well-respected authorities when they are 13-16 years old.
Whilst each group is dealing with certain specific issues, research has proven that these three groups have educational, social and emotional challenges in common. These include lower academic attainment, high unemployment rates, isolation, self-destructive behaviour and lack of self-esteem. With this in mind, the charity was set up over a decade ago by Sat, following his experience of being a young patient and young carer himself. We are an independently-funded charity, which means that there is no cost implication for our referring partners or beneficiaries.

We Are The Running Charity
Homelessness can happen at any time and to anyone. And when it happens to a young person it can affect them for the rest of their life. At least 83,000 young people in the UK are homeless right now and, with homeless young people almost twice as likely to die as their non-homeless peers, there is an urgent need to push for change.
We believe that running builds resilience, confidence and self-esteem and use this to improve the lives of 16-25 year-olds who are homeless or at risk of homelessness.
We know that running builds the fitness and goal-setting mentality that are key tools to help these young people to build healthy, sustainable futures. And develop and deliver personalised programmes to support some of the most vulnerable young people in London and Manchester.
Young Futures
Most of us can count on our families for love, support and guidance when we need it most. But young people in care have to grow up without this safety net. And at age 18, the limited support they do receive drops substantially at a really critical time. This lack of support can leave them feeling abandoned and vulnerable and facing a future of further disadvantage.
We’re here to fill that gap and to support young care-leavers on their journey into adulthood. We help them move towards practical, financial, social and emotional independence and a happier and more fulfilling future.
