I wanted to go out but I was too nervous and that’s when I found Inspire and decided to join their team programme

Annabelle’s Story, before our wellbeing support

We believe in youth

We believe in youth
We believe in youth

We work with over 7,000 young people each year, helping them find their purpose and uncover what they’re passionate about.

Giving young people the opportunity to help shape that vision for generations of young people – steering them away from an uncertain future and onto a pathway that leads to greater wellbeing, professional development and personal growth.

75% of our young people move onto a positive outcome in work, training or education following our courses
8/10 Over 80% of our participants said that if they weren’t taking part in our clubs they’d be inactive!
650 young people on our development courses each 
year, helping them onto a positive future

I felt like an absolute failure before having dropped out of college and every relationship around me seemingly breaking down. Inspire really got me out of the slump that I was in.  They had belief in me when I did not believe in myself.”

participated in Team Programme

Before I started Team Programme, I moved from Harlow to Felixstowe. I was worried I wouldn’t make any friends as I was leaving 20 years of my life behind. The experience helped me develop my social skills and my confidence in myself.
