Rise Futures

Rise Futures is a charity on a mission to help vulnerable young people reach their full potential, realise their self-worth and flourish in all that they do. We exist to provide impactful Opportunities which are a catalyst for long-lasting change.

Whether we’re guiding a young person towards a brighter future or supporting a business to help make a difference, we look to provide opportunities for positive change at every turn. Undaunted by the magnitude of the task, we won’t be satisfied until every young person has the tools they need to live happy, fulfilled lives.

Our charity is powered by people. People that are bold, experienced and driven by a desire for a better future. Coming from a diverse set of backgrounds, each of us brings a unique range of skills to the table. Together with the wider community, we cover the different bases needed to help create lasting change.

Prevention

We work with young people and those that have an influence in their lives - parents, community leaders, businesses and the government - to support them to Rise.

Intervention

Through personalised programmes and mentoring relationships, we help young people take positive steps towards improved wellbeing and mental health. By making timely interventions, we give young people the confidence to make positive life choices. Our specially trained staff work with our young people to get to the root of their problems, to make the changes needed for growth and to help them achieve better lifestyle outcomes.

Opportunity

In collaboration with businesses and mentors, we give young people new opportunities to nurture their talent and boost their life skills. When we partner with businesses, we train their staff to become volunteer mentors who’ll work with our young people to broaden their skill set and open their eyes to the possibilities of the professional world.

Community

Bringing together a community of people and organisations to support young people is central to our vision. We commission providers to run wellbeing sessions that help our young people find hobbies and fulfillment. Through the power of community, young people can start to take control of their wellbeing and mental health.
