“At Inspire, our mission has always been simple – to help young people be the best they can be. Since opening, we’ve worked tirelessly to provide equal opportunities, raise aspirations, and create a space where young people feel valued and supported. We’ve seen firsthand the incredible impact this work has had, and I’m so proud of what we’ve achieved so far.”
-Janine Blythe
We were created to empower and enrich young lives and provide opportunities and support to enable them to grow up to be the best they can be. Our nurturing and inspirational environment provides a space where young people can feel safe, where they can belong and where they can thrive.
We’re a place where they can both challenge themselves and be challenged, to grow, develop, socialise, build skills and resilience, and become well-adjusted, productive, and critical members of their community and society. Beyond our building, our vibrant programme of activities and support, provide the perfect mechanism to build trusted relationships between Young People and our Green Team.
Our team is our greatest strength. With highly trained, dedicated, and caring youth workers, and a diligent and focused support team, we all play our part to ensure a stable, coherent, well-resourced programme, designed to meet young people’s needs.
