Company activities and impact

We delivered 489 sessions and 25 inspirational experiences reaching 703 young people directly, resulting in 162 young people developing, 76 young people progressing and 11 young people making a key advancement towards reaching their potential. Additionally, we engaged 1,945 members of the general public and thousands more through social media.

Consultation with stakeholders

A crucial element of our work involves collaborating with participants to strategically reflect on our provisions, and contribute towards improving the way we work. We have embedded feedback requests from children and young people, staff, partners, and parents, and take the time to reflect on their ideas, thoughts, and opinions with them. All feedback is taken on-board, and those suggestions regarding ways we can improve are brought to senior staff to discuss at our regular meetings. Once discussed, actions will be decided and, if necessary, implementation of these improvements will commence, while keeping the stakeholders informed and involved.
