Empowering young people through Fitness and Food

 

A healthy lifestyle is so important for our physical and mental health – it helps us build a positive sense of wellbeing, confidence and social skills, focus and self management, and so much more.

However, young people are facing immense barriers such as cost, quality of resources, and safety when it comes to getting involved in physical activity and eating well. As one of the sole youth spaces in Wandsworth, it’s our mission to break these barriers down, and we’re really excited to announce that you can help this December…

One of our most proud achievements over the past year is that we were able to grow our Roehampton Rec ‘Your time to move’ multi-sports sessions from 1 to 4 hours a week, across 2 days – offering young people a safe space to get active, learn vital life skills, and feel empowered.

With the growth of our team we were also able to create a stable and consistent team of youth workers who deliver the sessions, allowing the development of stronger relationships and better support to the young people who attend.

Alongside this, we developed our gym and fitness sessions at the Ashburton, and offered a hot nutritious meal in every single youth club session. This doesn’t stop though, and it’s vital that we’re able to continue offering and growing these services.

 

 

Double your donation, double your difference!

 

The Big Give Christmas Challenge is a match funding campaign where every donation made on our Big Give page between midday Tuesday 3rd December – midday Tuesday 10th December will be DOUBLED. This year, our Big Give campaign will be raising money for our youth sessions in both Roehampton and The Ashburton Youth Club.

With the money raised, we will be able to offer 5000 meals to young people over the next year, and deliver over 200 fitness sessions! This will allow them to create healthier lifestyles, build better mental health and feel empowered to make the best of their lives.

Please do make sure to save the date and the donation link, so that you can double your difference this Christmas, and in the mean time please follow us on Instagram and LinkedIn for more updates!

Together, we can continue to empower young people and change their lives!
