Situation
Referrals for our support are up 300% since 2020, with safeguarding concerns taking twice as long to resolve given the growing complexity. Motiv8 is at the coal face of the pandemic’s legacy, the cost-of-living crisis, and years of underinvestment in left-behind communities. Struggling with their mental health, young people tell us they need a safe space, a trusted adult & the confidence to talk through these issues. Recent data shows many don’t know where to access support in their communities.
Solution
Our mission is to provide strong foundations, facilitated through flexible delivery & offer a supportive service that is engaging & fun. This allows young people to thrive. Despite external challenges, through the continued provision of open access safe spaces, by sharing power & building trusted relationships, Motiv8 will be an agent of positive change. We will create opportunities for young people to unlock skills, tools & resilience to access a brighter future in their own communities.
