Prior to lockdown BIGKID Foundation ran a minimum of 13 different sessions (including youth club and sports clubs) across multiple school and community sites in Lambeth and Lewisham, engaging between 150-200 young people each week. This funding is to support the continuation and growth of their virtual youth work programme that has replaced face to face work during lockdown. They plan to offer sessions 6 days a week including fitness, challenge videos, leadership sessions, mentoring (one to one and group), music listening parties, games tournaments, workshops (money, relationships, mental health) and a book club. Further to this, they would like to employ a small team of outreach workers (youth club members who have completed more than a 100 hours of volunteering with BIGKID) who will facilitate access to and support sessions and launch a C19 'helpline' (connecting with young people struggling with their mental or physical health or in need of essential supplies) and use approx £1500 to purchase f ood, utilities top-ups and technology that they can provide to those families who are suffering the greatest economic hardship.

We will deliver twelve sessions of American Flag Football (AFF) at Larkhall Park in Stockwell, for young people aged 11-25. Our AFF programme is currently rolling out to schools and communities in other areas of Lambeth and Lewisham. The sessions at Larkhall Park will become a focal hub for young people across the programme to come together each week. In doing this we will strengthen relationships between ethnic groups and across geographic boundaries. As the sport is new for most, it creates a level playing field where any age, gender or background can get involved and play together. Racism and youth violence are key community issues identified by our young people. By bringing together a highly diverse and geographically spread group to play AFF, we are providing an opportunity to let off steam and keep active, whilst also applying key transferable skills such as teamwork, communication and leadership. Relying on each other as team-mates, sharing the joy or pain of winning or losing, creates camaraderie and builds bonds, which last beyond the pitch. Coming together and sharing in sport on neutral ground, breaks down barriers and shows what can be achieved by communicating and working together.
As a sport where boys and girls can play together, this project integrates genders. In a community where some cultures have clearly defined gender roles, AFF provides a platform where all can compete on a level playing field.
Some of our young people are affected (some undiagnosed) by mental health issues such as suicidal thoughts and depression. There are also a number from families that have newly arrived in the UK who may additionally face language barriers – Stockwell has a high proportion of Portuguese speakers. Integrating, particularly as a young person, can be highly daunting. Attending free sports sessions where they can interact and make new friends, provides an inclusive and easily accessible opportunity to integrate.
Our sports sessions are often the entry point for many young people. With our staff and coaches (all of whom have come through the BIGKID programme themselves), acting as informal mentors, we hope they will share any issues they may be facing, so that we can help them access wider BIGKID programmes or support services. Our youth workers are young people themselves and may have first-hand experience of what participants are facing, making it easier to facilitate conversations and ultimately help them onto a more positive pathway.
