Jump Start Mentors

Jump Start Mentors also supports young people aged 8 -18 years old who may have chaotic home lives, struggle to stay in school or may be known to the police. The programme will introduce young people to physically active provision in sports through linking with sports clubs, or other active youth sessions with the aim of them becoming part of that club. Initially they will work 1:1 with a sports mentor and then with a trained volunteer within the chosen sports club.
