Super proud to share & celebrate this video of some of the young people we have been working with over the last few years. They’ve all come such a long way and thriving. The power of co-creation, mentoring and physical activity at its finest. Full video we.tl/b-hJQp5fEHvI

Introducing Active Link. The same charity, with the same charitable purpose, we just have a new name. In line with our charity principles of co-creation, the name derives from a project co-created by the young people we worked with at @COBSPRU
Half term doesn’t mean our work stops, for us this is a great time to check in, not only with our young people but the families too. Our mentors have been out completing doorstop visits & providing the young people with Dream Big journals. How many stars can we help to shine⭐️
The schools maybe closed for Christmas but that doesn’t mean our work stops. Our mentors Ken & Eudina have been delivering well-being door step visits with the young people on our Active Link project providing Christmas treats 🎄
📢 The first of many key milestones for the young people on our Active Link programme, they’ve hit the 10 week mark meaning certificates and a reward day 🎉
When 4 women connect over a shared passion watch the magic happen. Baby Lisbon joining his first F4L meeting too.The team met with Marie Gentle, a behaviour advisor who you may recognise from BBC documentary ‘Don’t Exclude Me’Watch this space for exciting news in the New Year🥳
A real treat today for the young people on our Active Link programme @COBSPRU meeting the inspirational Dele Adebola. Dele & his team from @Strike9Training delivered a session & it’s fair to say the young people loved it. A big thank you to Dele and his team for supporting us.
We’re building quite a team of change makers! We're excited to introduce our new Development Officer, Krystal. Krystal uses her passion for writing to give young people a voice to tell their narrative. Krystal is committed to helping young people secure the future they deserve 👏
Introducing Ken who has joined us as one of our mentors. Ken has over 35 years’ experience working with young people in a variety of environments from youth offending to secure units. Ken has a Black Belt in Shotokan Karate🥋and tells us his table tennis skills are on point 🏓
This week is volunteers week, a time to celebrate and thank those that give up their time to make a difference. We'd like to say a special thank you to our very own volunteer Tom. Tom has made such a positive impact on the work we do. Thank you Tom #VolunteersWeek
We’re super excited to introduce Eudina, our new Senior Youth Engagement Officer, leading on our Active Link Up project in Birmingham. Eudina has been working to improve the lives of vulnerable young people for many years and is looking forward to continuing this work with us.
We’ve been working with the young people @COBSPRU & seen some great engagement & positive outcomes so far. Through the work of our amazing Active Link Up mentors, two young people are now participating in boxing clubs after school & another is about to embark on a bike workshop
We're thrilled to hear that #schools in #London will benefit from £1m of support to open their facilities outside school hours, to help #youngpeople be more active. @LondonSport will distribute grants to schools with high %'s of pupils on free school meals, & pupils with SEND.
We agree with @WHO that health is a right not a privilege. It’s time to build a fairer healthier world for everyone everywhere #WorldHealthDay
Lockdown's led girls to recognise the value of exercise for physical & mental health. @Womeninsport_uk revealed that 82% of girls want to put more effort into being active. However, many have lost confidence in their sporting ability & worry about being in large groups again.
A big thank you to mindfulness teacher and mentor Stephen for creating this video for Fit4Life, to help motivate and encourage young people to be more mindful and active. 😊⚽️🧑🏼🦽🏏🏃🏾♀️🚶🏽♂️ @DrZoeWilliams #mindfulness #mentor #physicaleducation #youngpeople #mindfulwalking
