About us...
Who We Support:
YouThrive Academy supports young people aged 16–18 who are not in education, employment, or training (NEET), particularly those living in supported accommodation. We provide a safe, nurturing and trauma-informed environment where learners can re-engage with education, build confidence, and take meaningful steps towards independence.
Through tailored wraparound support—delivered via small groups or one-to-one sessions—we help each young person develop the skills, resilience, and self-belief needed to succeed in education, employment, and adult life.
We understand that many of our learners have faced disrupted schooling, instability and/or difficult life experiences, but we passionately believe that everyone deserves a second chance. As our name suggests, at YouThrive, we don’t just help young people get by—we empower them to thrive.
What We Offer:
We offer a creative and ambitious programme designed to support our young people in gaining skills, qualifications, and work experience at their own pace.
Learners will:
✅ Get accredited qualifications (ASDAN & Open Awards)
✅ Learn how to write a CV and prepare for interviews
✅ Take part in real work experience
✅ Build confidence, motivation and independence
✅ Access 1:1 support in a trauma-informed, friendly setting

We believe every young person is unique, capable, and deserving of respect. Our staff are trained to meet learners where they are—listening without judgment, valuing different experiences, and recognising the rights, voices, and aspirations of all individuals. Respect is at the heart of our trauma-informed practice and underpins the strong relationships we build with our learners.

Integrity is the foundation of trust. Our staff act honestly, ethically, and with transparency—ensuring that learners, families, and professionals can rely on us. Whether supporting young people through challenges or celebrating their progress, we remain grounded in fairness, accountability, and doing the right thing—even when no one is watching.

YouThrive is an inclusive academy where all young people—regardless of background, ability, identity, or experience—are welcomed and supported to succeed. We promote fairness, celebrate difference, and actively challenge discrimination. Our staff are committed to creating an environment where every learner feels safe, accepted, and empowered to thrive.
We embed these values in every part of our work—from recruitment and training to daily practice and learner support. Our team is united in one goal: helping young people believe in themselves, access meaningful opportunities, and succeed on their own terms.
"Diversity is not about how we differ. It's about embracing one another's uniqueness."
