TO PRESERVE AND PROTECT HEALTH AND ADVANCE EDUCATION SURROUNDING YOUTH ISSUES, EQUALITY AND BULLYING FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT BY:
1) Operating as a youth charity with a core aim to advance and promote the wellbeing of our beneficiaries; young people aged 12-25. We will work across five key areas: bullying prevention, mental health & wellbeing, digital literacy, healthy relationships and identity (primarily orientated around protected characteristics) by raising awareness of the issues faced by young people to improve outcomes across their lives.
2) Contributing towards the fields of research and innovation within our respective core focal areas (see 1) by carrying out primary and secondary research, in addition to the analysis of big data (i.e. social listening) in collaboration with selected partners. This learning will inform our direct support provision and public campaigns to benefit our youth beneficiaries and wider society.
3) Supporting our youth beneficiaries by providing direct advice and facilitating peer-to-peer support on digital forums for our youth beneficiaries as a means of aiding their navigation through the common challenges associated within our core focal areas (see 1), thereby improving their outcomes across health, mental health, social wellbeing, education and future prospects.
4) Advance education through the research, development and distribution of educational materials in both traditional and digital educational environments to directly benefit our youth beneficiaries and educational practitioners.
5) Raise awareness and positively influence societal attitudes and behaviours towards our five key focal areas (see 1) by using public awareness campaigns and sharing our research and insights publicly to benefit our youth beneficiaries and wider society in order to improve outcomes in their lives.
6) Advocate the needs and challenges of young people to key stakeholder groups and policy makers by monitoring and evaluating the experiences and opinions of young people and amplifying and reflecting their voice in order to positively benefit their lives across wider society.
7) Provide secondary support, advice, information and resources to additional stakeholder groups; such as parents/guardians, educators and industry in order to further benefit our youth beneficiaries and advance the education and future prospects of young people.
