Evidence of Need
From October to December 2022, data shows 11.6% of young people aged 16-24 are not in education, employment, or training (NEET, ONS 2022). This, sadly, is an upward trend exacerbated by mounting societal pressures, a cost-of-living crisis, and the ongoing fallout of a global pandemic.
This programme seeks to support 'at risk' young people through a series of sessions delivered by inspirational athlete mentors and teachers through active learning and sport. Set for Success supports participants to improve their life and employability skills, their engagement at school, as well as develop their confidence, aspirations and self-esteem.

Impact to Date
Over the course of a three year pilot (2020-23) Set for Success engaged 426 young people, of which:
- 56% were in receipt of free school meals
- 32% had additional support needs
- 25% were from ethnically diverse communities.
The programme proved successful in improving the attitudes, behaviours and key skills of these young people.
Due to the pilot's success, the project has been extended to further increase the reach of the programme. Over the next four years (2023-27) Set for Success will reach another 150 schools across the UK, engaging up to 3,900 young people.
For more information and case studies from the pilot please visit the Set for Success website or see our evaluation report.
