Our Programmes

Our programmes are built around a specialist, evidence-informed approach to supporting young people affected by serious youth violence, criminal exploitation and complex social challenges.

We recognise that these challenges are often driven by overlapping factors such as trauma, exclusion and limited access to opportunities. In response, we deliver early, targeted and long-term support through a wrap around model combining mentoring, outreach, therapeutic support and pathways into education, employment and life skills.

Our work is grounded in relationship-based practice and informed by models such as AMBIT, enabling us to build trust, understand behaviour and support young people to make safer, more positive choices. We take a trauma-informed, intelligence-led approach working closely with schools, families and partner agencies to identify risk early and deliver joined-up support. Working in this way ensures the young person is at the heart of what we do.

All of our programmes are free and delivered within the communities we serve.

Sport/Community

Our sports programmes use physical activity as a powerful engagement tool to build trust, develop discipline and strengthen social and emotional skills. Through regular sessions in boxing, yoga and martial arts, young people access safe spaces where they can build confidence, learn new skills and engage positively with peers and mentors.

"Before I started with Be Inspired, I felt lost and unsure about my future. They’ve helped me find confidence in myself, focus on my goals, and stay away from the negative influences around me.

Be Inspired hasn’t just changed my life, it’s given me the strength to help others, too."

SERAI

"Without Be Inspired I would not be the person I am today. When I first came to them I was quite timid, quite quiet, but now I've grown into a sociable person. I can't thank everyone enough at Be Inspired for changing my life."

DAN

"I've been coming to Be Inspired since I was 13. I've learned life-long skills, met great people, and ultimately I wouldn't be the person I am today without them."

EDDY

"Before coming to Be Inspired, I was spending most of my time on the street with no real direction. The community sessions have given me somewhere positive to go and have helped me stay fit. I am now competing in Jiu Jitsu competitions - something I never thought I'd be doing."
