Empowering Youth: From Our Past to Their Future.
Drawing from our own life experiences, having once been involved in exploitation and violence, we guide young people away from making the same mistakes. This proven approach counters glamorised narratives and engages the hardest-to-reach young people.
School Assemblies
We facilitate presentations on knife crime, youth violence, county lines, youth exploitation, gang involvement, and cyber safety. Debunking myths and media glamorisation of destructive lifestyles.
1:1 Mentoring
Providing personalised support to at-risk and hard-to-reach students, reducing challenging behaviours and covering various aspects of lifestyle choices, realities, and consequences through relatable mentoring and lived experiences.
Critical Workshops
Our critical workshops increase young people’s knowledge and perception of destructive choices, realities, and consequences through relatable mentoring and lived experiences. Delivered to small groups over multiple sessions and weeks.
Sports Intervention Programme
Using sports to engage students, promoting self-discipline, resilience, and discussing topics like accountability, respect, and decision making. We partner with schools to provide programmes and offer free-to-access sessions for the local community. Our tiered assemblies, workshops and programmes are designed for young people aged 8-25.
Professional & Parent Workshops
We deliver talks, training and workshops to help professionals and parents gain awareness and understanding of exploitation. Equip adults with tools to engage with and support young people involved in gangs and violence.
Community Voices
Hear from the parents, schools and partners we've worked with to create a brighter future for young people.
The event was great, with around 250 children passing through over the three days. It was obvious as an observer how Moses and Thomas were able to strike up a really good rapport with the kids, of all ages, and their inputs were understood and did have an impact on the young people, who we hope will take their learning away – for themselves, their friends and family.

Training for staff was really well received with staff commenting that it was fantastic, good, informative, inspiring, and that it was different to normal training as it was a lived experience. Good for those staff who have not had these experiences to see what it was like from the other side, and how things can turn around.Thank you for taking out the time to deliver the training. My experience with Thomas and Moses was fantastic - they were on-time and knowledgeable.

Students at Oakbank have benefitted immensely in the last couple of years from the service provided by Charles Carrington and Thomas Jarvis.The 1:1 mentoring sessions have helped students to self-regulate and make the right choices in school. The boxing club offered at lunchtime and afterschool has had a positive impact on the students' wellbeing. The key benefits of these sessions are to help develop self-discipline, build self-confidence as well as being a healthy physical activity. Charles and Thomas have developed positive relationships with students over the years.We would highly recommend the service to other schools.
