We believe when you change your thinking, you can change your world.
“Grit sets out to show young people they are worth something; that in one way or another they are capable of achievement that deserves and earns the respect of others. Grit is an inspiration to them and has been an inspiration to me.”
— Lord Phillips, Former President of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom
Grit collaborates with local partners, reaching those young people in communities who are experiencing the most disengagement, isolation and vulnerability.
We enable new levels of responsibility, optimism for the future and belonging.
During their (often residential) group workshop, we lead young people through a process where - step by step - they are able to see that what has happened in their past does not have to define or determine how their future is shaped.
They are able to identify, in absolute safety and with no judgement, the root causes of why they think, feel and act, the way that they do.
This clears the way for young people to change what drives them, in turn enabling a transformation in how they approach and engage with life.
A network of volunteers, local professionals and businesses are also enrolled, they provide the ongoing support for young people as they exit the intensive workshop and begin the ‘embed’ phase of their programme.
One-to-one life coaching and group development sessions are crucial to translate their attitudinal change into behavioural change and – ultimately – transformed life outcomes.
