London Triathlon 2017 · 22 July 2017 to 23 July 2017 ·

Our proven, community-based coaching programme, Spear, helps young people break down barriers and thrive in work and life. We see what others often miss: potential. And we help young people see it in themselves and use their strengths, alongside new practical skills, in their careers.

Story

I'm doing the London Triathlon on Sunday 23 July to raise the money to sponsor a young person through the Spear programme -  £1500.

The Spear programme has been running at Holy Trinity Swiss Cottage for four years; coaching over 300 16-24 year olds from the most disadvantaged and vulnerable backgrounds . These young people often face big challenges with confidence, low self-worth and issues such as depression and anxiety.

Through Spear Life, young people regain confidence and a sense of being valuable, while Spear Career gives them the skills they need to prepare for working life. The results are amazing, with 75% of young people still in work or further training one year after graduating from the Spear programme.

The Spear programme transforms lives. Read the stories of some of the students from the Camden Spear Centre here http://camdenspeartrust.org/meet-our-students/
