OUR PROGRAMMES
INSPIRE YOUTH
11-18
Our Youth Programme provides a safe, engaging, and supportive environment for young people to thrive. Through a wide range of activities – including Football, Craft Club, and Youth Club – we aim to support their physical, emotional, and social development while fostering creativity, confidence, and community connections. By addressing challenges such as loneliness, isolation, social exclusion, crime prevention, and violence reduction, we actively engage with young people to build resilience, promote positive choices, and create opportunities for personal growth and meaningful participation in their community.
We offer a trusted space where young people can explore new interests, build essential life skills, and develop positive relationships.
Our work is grounded in a commitment to creating meaningful impact. Through partnerships with organisations, we deliver high-quality, inclusive programming that promotes well-being, leadership, and teamwork among the next generation. Together, we inspire young people to reach their potential, discover their passions, and build brighter futures. Join us in making a difference! Find out more about our activities here.
INSPIRE TO WORK (ITW)
16-25
Our most effective approach is through 1-1 casework to help beneficiaries identify and address barriers that prevent them from making progress. This holistic, individually tailored method vastly improves their chances of obtaining sustainable employment. Barriers progressing into employment identified by our young people include lack of experience, lack of opportunities, lack of qualifications and lack of confidence. From our work with them through our ITW programme, we are aware of additional challenges including caring responsibilities, leaving care, substance misuse, involvement in criminal activities, behavioural difficulties, domestic abuse and family problems. Rarely do any of these problems exist in isolation, so the young people we support are facing a combination of these situations. For more information or support finding training or employment, please contact Stephanie on 07563493977 or at stephanie@in-spire.org.uk
INSPIRE PARENT
The primary service we offer for the young mothers is through 1-1 advocacy to resolve a range of significant difficulties. Examples typically include securing appropriate housing, preventing eviction and helping to navigate the maze of statutory services which can improve their family’s life chances. We can accompany young parents to meetings, help them to understand decision pathways, liaise on their behalf with statutory agencies, housing providers or benefits agencies. Our aim is to bring long lasting practical solutions which helps young women parents to make positive progress with improved resilience. We also provide in-crisis bursaries.
INSPIRE GROWING
18+
Regular outdoor gardening activities for adults with disabilities and mental health conditions. The gardening programme runs from April to October and is designed to reduce social isolation, build confidence and improve social skills and focus on growing for healthy eating on local allotments in and around Burgess Park and on the Aylesbury Estate. We also run groups trips out around the local area, such as Bee Urban, a local bee-keeping organisation based in Kennington Park.
