Today we're at Asda Newton Abbot as part of their Making Local Life Better initiative, celebrating Volunteers' Week and raising awareness of the support we provide to young people across Devon.

We're also talking to customers about volunteering opportunities and how they can make a difference in their local community.

If you're in the area, come and say hello to Cathie and Georgia, who will be there until 5:30pm. We'd love to meet you and tell you more about Life Chance Trust and the work we do.

This afternoon, our mentors took part in valuable training with Together Devon on drug and alcohol awareness.

It was a great opportunity to learn from the experts, equipping our team with the knowledge and confidence to recognise potential concerns, provide appropriate support, and signpost young people to specialist services if needed.

A huge thank you to Together Devon for sharing their expertise and helping us continue to support young people in our community.

It’s Volunteers’ Week 🧡 ⭐

At Life Chance Trust, our volunteers are the heart of what we do, working directly with young people through mentoring, activities and life-skills, as well as supporting our operations behind the scenes.
We simply couldn’t do it without them.

A HUGE thank-you to all our volunteers, we’ll be celebrating you this week.

Here are a few words from James about his time volunteering with us.

We're thrilled to say that so far we've raised £3700 from the recent Great West Run!

We had 14 runners taking on a tough course in brutal weather conditions.
We love them all. 😍

This money makes a huge difference to us and what we can offer to the young people in our community.

THANKYOU!

🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ The Great West Run! 🧡

A huge thank you to the 14 incredible runners who took on Exeter’s Great West Run yesterday in support of Life Chance Trust. It was an extremely hot day, but every single runner dug deep and crossed the finish line. You should all be so proud of yourselves!

Thank you for supporting us and the young people we work with. Your efforts truly make a difference.

See you next year! 🧡

🧡 Mental Health Week 🧡

This week is Mental Health Awareness Week, and one thing we’re seeing a lot with the young people we support at the moment, is the impact of exam stress. 🧡

Here are some simple ways to help manage stress during exam season:

Tip 1. Set a goal and make a plan
Break revision into small, manageable chunks with a clear study plan.

Tip 2. Study in short bursts
Try 25–30 minutes of focused study, followed by a proper break.

Tip 3. Feed your brain
Healthy food and plenty of water can help concentration and focus.

Tip 4. Prioritise sleep
A rested mind copes better with stress and performs better too.

Tip 5. Talk to someone
Sharing how you’re feeling with someone you trust can really help.

Tip 6. Make time to relax
Walks, music, breathing exercises or mindfulness can help calm a busy mind.

Remember — exams are important, but so is your wellbeing.
You've got this 💪

On Saturday, the young people from Life Chance Trust enjoyed a fantastic bowling trip as part of this year’s activities programme 🎳

We had a brilliant day together filled with fun, laughter, friendly competition, and a lovely lunch afterwards. It was wonderful to see everyone enjoying themselves, and we were so pleased that some of our amazing volunteers could join us too.

A huge thank you to Rotary Newton Abbot, Devonshire Freemasons, Exeter Round Table and Devon Local Authority: Things To Do, Places To Go, for helping to fund activities like this for our young people. Your support makes experiences like these possible and truly means so much to our community 🧡
