We are becoming more aware of the diverse needs of young women in our community. We advocate a strengths-based approach to voluntary social-action, helping young women identify their skills and abilities and feel more empowered in themselves. We will help the young women further develop existing life skills and experiences. For example, providing mutual-aid through listening, making constructive suggestions and encouraging peers. The project will improve a wide range of soft skills and improve aspirations, motivation and confidence. As an organisation we strive to increase emotional resilience, wellbeing transferable skills and community belonging amongst young people. Through this project young women from disadvantaged backgrounds will organise and participate in regular sport and exercise. We will produce the following outcomes for all participants: Improved physical health Increased knowledge about local sport and exercise opportunities that are suitable. Improved social opportunities through sport. Increased emotional resilience and positive wellbeing. Improved physical fitness and social mobility An increased sense of community belonging. This project goes beyond by promising the following additional outcomes: Improved understanding of mental health issues. An opportunity to connect to other young people and reduce isolation. Through co-producing and delivering activities to their peers, young women will benefit from the following outcomes: Increased team working, communication and leadership skills. Increased ability to articulate qualities and skill sets in CVs and future applications. Better prerequisites for obtaining better employment, training and educational opportunities.
