Our mission is to change lives through golf. Not only do we work to make the sport accessible to all but also use its valuable life lessons to improve the mental health and wellbeing of young people. We are raising funds to deliver Unleash Your Drive in 10 schools across the UK.

Situation
In working with schools, youth clubs and golf clubs, we have become increasingly concerned about the worrying decline in young people’s mental health, particularly since the Covid lockdowns. Mental health challenges lead to lower school attendance and poor learning outcomes, particularly in exams. Good mental health and wellbeing helps children and young people: develop; attend school; engage in learning; fulfil their potential.
Solution
Golf offers a wide range of benefits that contribute positively to children's mental health. Our Unleash Your Drive programme takes this impact a step further by delivering and measuring significant improvements in mental toughness and ultimately wellbeing. Researched and developed over the past five years, our programme specialises in teaching nine core mental toughness tools to young people and shows an average 19% increase in overall mental toughness, confidence and emotional control.
