Story
"Before the Spear Programme... I felt like I should give up, that I'm not really worth anything. But during this programme I've learnt so much. I've learnt that even through all of the things that have happened to me, I'm more than that, that doesn't define me, and I can still get to where I want in life." - Aaniya, Spear Clapham Junction trainee, currently employed
Thousands of young people across the UK face barriers to employment. Many young people find themselves trapped in a vicious cycle. Unemployment has been linked to low self-esteem, stress and unhelathy behaviours, which only makes finding work and breaking out of the cycle, even more challenging! We want to prevent any young person from being left behind.
Will you help us?
Through Resurgo's award winning Spear Programme, more than 9000 young people so far have been equipped with the skills and mindset they need to find and thrive in work, giving them a brighter future and transforming their communities in turn. 75% of the young people we work with get into work and are still there a year later!
"Spear helped me find my voice again. It made me feel like people actually cared about my future, and inspired me to be better... Not to be dramatic or anything, but I feel like Spear has changed my life" - Gabriella, Spear Brighton trainee, currently employed
