Really pleased to have completed my Level 3 Award in Supporting Participation in Physical Activity: Disability and Impairments.

Having ADHD myself, I understand that people do not all learn, engage or build confidence in the same way. That is why this qualification feels so relevant to the work we do at Channels Futures.

We use movement, outdoor activity and golf to help people feel comfortable, build trust and begin making progress in a way that works for them.

I’m really looking forward to the new academic year and supporting more young people to reconnect with education and start believing in themselves.

Sometimes progress is simply turning up, trying something new or staying engaged for a little longer.

Those small wins add up.

Watching a young person grow in confidence, back themselves and realise what they’re capable of is what Channels Futures is all about!!

Grateful for every young person and family that trust me to be part of their journey 🙏❤️

It didn’t come home this time! ⚽😂

On a more positive note, we’ve opened up a few spaces for our 1:1 and 2:1 movement mentoring sessions.

If your child or young person is struggling with confidence, anxiety, low self-esteem, school engagement or just needs someone in their corner, we’d love to help. Our sessions use movement and real conversations to build trust, confidence and resilience in a relaxed outdoor environment.

For our 2:1 sessions they can bring a friend, which often helps take the pressure off and makes those first few sessions much more comfortable.

We believe in progress over perfection. Every young person is different, so we meet them where they’re at and help them move forward at their own pace.

If you think this could benefit your child, someone you support, or a young person you know, send us a message or give us a call. We’re always happy to have a chat and see if we’re the right fit.

📍Based in Chelmsford, supporting young people across Essex.

Proud of this bloke! This movement challenges balance, coordination, core strength and body awareness, while encouraging the brain and body to work together. For people living with a brain injury, these small moments of progress can make a real difference in everyday life. That’s why I love what we do. It’s never about being perfect, it’s about building confidence, one step at a time. 💙

One of our students LSA spoke to us and told us the improvements he has seen at home and college! I believe in making sessions fun but also pushing you enough to get a win! Relationship first always!!

Hello people, this is something I’ve created for the summer holidays, something positive for the youths and help them build confidence while having fun!! This is my absolute passion and I’m super excited to welcome you!!

Most young people don’t lack ability…
they lack the right environment to grow.

That’s why I use my method:

CFER
Connect. Focus. Engage. Reflect.

🔹 Connect – build trust first (nothing works without it)
🔹 Focus – remove overwhelm, keep it simple
🔹 Engage – movement + real action, not just talking
🔹 Reflect – build confidence through awareness

Since applying this, I’ve seen:
✔️ Confidence go through the roof
✔️ Engagement levels completely change
✔️ Young people start believing in themselves again

This is for the ones who don’t fit the system…
and were never meant to.

If you work with young people in Essex or know someone who needs this — message me.
