Youth Impact: Empowering Young People with Skills, Confidence, and Community Spirit

 

In response to the government’s decision to end funding for the NCS programme, Your Sports Education has developed an exciting opportunity for young people across the South West and South East of England: the Youth Impact Programme. This dynamic 5-day course is designed to equip teens with essential life skills, boost their confidence, and help them build meaningful connections — all while giving back to their local communities. Best of all, it’s just £99!

​

Whether they’re looking to enhance their CV, meet new friends, or volunteer, Youth Impact is the perfect programme to support their personal growth. From teambuilding games to hands-on workshops in first aid and public speaking, Youth Impact gives teens the chance to explore new interests, learn practical skills, and make a positive impact.

​

So, What Is Youth Impact?

Youth Impact is a 5-day programme (Monday to Friday, 10am-4pm) designed to engage and empower young people aged 15-17 (year 11 or year 12). It’s packed with fun, interactive activities that will help your teen develop new skills, build confidence, and make lasting friendships, all while giving back to the local community. Here’s a sneak peek at what they can expect:

• Community Monopoly Challenge: A fun, team-based activity that helps your teen explore and engage with their local community.

• Teambuilding Games: Designed to improve communication, leadership, and teamwork, all while having fun.

• First Aid Workshop: Practical, life-saving skills that can enhance their CV and give them confidence in emergency situations.

• Public Speaking Workshop: Helping your teen develop confidence and presentation skills that will benefit them in school, college, and future careers.

• Debates and Discussions: Engaging in important conversations about issues that matter to young people today.

• Community Action Project: Your teen will choose a project that allows them to give back to their local community, gaining a sense of achievement and pride in their efforts.
