Our project, aligns perfectly with the funding priorities outlined. Our aim is to create a positive impact by providing a safe and nurturing environment for young people in Croydon South West London. We seek funding to deliver a range of community-led activities that address the key priorities highlighted:
Through workshops, mentorship programs, and youth club activities, we aim to build strong relationships within and across communities. Our emphasis on community engagement will foster a sense of belonging among young people.
The establishment of a youth center in Croydon South West London will contribute to enhancing the places and spaces that matter to our community. This dedicated space will serve as a constructive and safe haven for young individuals.
By providing workshops on education, career prospects, and mentorship, we are supporting young people at the earliest possible stage, helping them discover and develop their talents to reach their full potential.
Our project involves the community of Croydon South West London in various ways. We engage with community members through regular in-person meetings, social media interactions, and surveys to understand their needs and aspirations fully. Through open days and community events, we provide platforms for dialogue and feedback, ensuring that our project reflects the diverse voices and perspectives within the community.
Inspire Youths CIC actively involves community members in project development and delivery by including them on our advisory board and steering committees. These community representatives play a crucial role in shaping the direction and activities of our project, ensuring that it remains responsive to the evolving needs of the community.
With this money it will allow us to run our project and also pay staff, as a new start up it can be difficult to secure funding, this could help us to continue moving forward.
