Champions Programme

Promoting the best in you

Programme

ABOUT US

Our mission is to create a space where you feel safe, comfortable and feel good about being yourself. Champions isn’t a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach, it’s about working together to discover your aspirations and helping you to achieve them.

The team is made up of mentors from the local football community trusts who are around to access local opportunities and activities which help you get to where you want to be in life. Champions is open to people aged 10-25, and as a team we are passionate about making a difference to young people’s lives and the communities they live in.

Team Talk

TEAM TALK

Our programme kicks off with getting to know your mentor. They’ll talk to you about your strengths, aspirations, how they can support you and how the programme might look for you.

If you’re still keen, they’ll work with you to make a plan going forward.

  • Where do you want to be this time next year?
  • What are your strengths and aspirations?
  • How can we help you?
  • What sort of things do you enjoy?

It’s time to start working on the plan! The Champions programme is completely voluntary. There’s no time limit, provided you’re engaging with us and working towards your objectives.

Your mentor will help you work through your plan for as long as you need us. Once you’re ready, we’ll help you take the next step. The next step could be:

  • Attending education, training or getting help with a job
  • Unplugging from social media to give yourself a mental break
  • Regular exercise, even a short walk gives you more energy and clear your head
  • Helping others in your community or supporting new Champions

We wrap up the programme by celebrating everything you’ve achieved. It’s a great way to finish the programme by showing off your accomplishments with the Champions team, friends, and family.

“The session went really well, I’m doing a trial work shift and think it’ll go really well!”
