Here at C-STEM, we passionately believe that all young people should be empowered to have confidence and self-esteem, enabling them to achieve their full potential. Therefore, we feel that attitudes must change towards bullying and that the correct support and resources should be available to those who are or have been bullied. We have chosen Bullies Out as our charity as it supports our values and we are committed to supporting a local charity that has a big impact on both the local and wider community.
Bullies Out was set up in 2006 and has become one of the UK’s most dedicated and ambitious anti-bullying charities. Their award-winning work is delivered across the UK and each year, through their work with individuals, schools, colleges, youth, and community settings, they provide educational workshops, training and support to thousands of young people.
They provide innovative, engaging and interactive anti-bullying workshops and training programmes that are developed to reduce bullying in schools and the workplace; change attitudes and behaviours, recognise and respect difference, understand impact and consequences and raise confidence and self-esteem.
In addition, they deliver empowering youth engagement programmes that encourage young people to take a stand against bullying and Make a Difference in their communities.
