A DAY OF FUN, FRIENDSHIP, AND A BIT OF HEALTHY COMPETITION!

There’s something special about seeing young people relax, have fun, and simply enjoy being themselves.
That’s exactly what we saw at our recent Activity Day at Everington Youth Club in Leicester.
Our young people spent the day playing basketball, football, pool, and table tennis, with plenty of laughter and a bit of healthy competition along the way!
We finished with a sandwich lunch – as the planned BBQ had to be abandoned because of the drought.
For our mentors, it was about more than the activities. Spending time together away from the usual mentoring sessions gave them the chance to see different sides of the young people they support, chat, laugh and build those all-important relationships.
And one young person summed up their day rather brilliantly:
“That was cool, I was great at basketball!”
It might seem like a small moment, but these are the moments that matter. Positive experiences. Someone taking an interest. A young person feeling part of something. An adult they can trust.
That’s at the heart of what we’re trying to build through our Aspire Mentoring Project.
There’s lots more to look forward to, including regular football and boxing sessions, an adventure weekend in the Peak District and the launch of Next-Steps for 11–14-year-olds.
We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who helps us create these opportunities for young people in our community.
If you’d like to support what we’re doing, please follow our page, share our posts, or get in touch to find out more.
Every bit of support helps us give more young people positive experiences and people they can rely on.

HELPING SHAPE BRIGHTER FUTURES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE ACROSS LEICESTERSHIRE

We're delighted to welcome Anna Perry to the Triple Skillz Charity family as our newest Trustee.

As we continue growing the Aspire Mentoring Project and supporting more young people across Leicester, we're grateful to have talented and committed people like Anna helping guide the charity's future.
Welcome to the team, Anna — we're looking forward to working together to create more opportunities for local young people.

Meet one of the people helping to create positive opportunities for local young people across Leicestershire.

We're delighted that our newest trustee, Pardeep Gill, is already stepping up to support Triple Skillz Charity in an incredible way.

This weekend, Pardeep will be taking on the challenge of climbing Ben Nevis as part of a team led by our Chief Executive, Ron Overton, bringing together supporters from charities connected through Implement UK.

For Pardeep, this is about much more than reaching the summit.
"Throughout my own life I've experienced challenges that have shaped who I am, and I've been fortunate to come through them with the support and belief of others.
Taking on Ben Nevis feels like a fitting way to support a charity that's giving young people those same opportunities to grow in confidence, develop skills and believe in their own potential.
If climbing one mountain can help a young person overcome their own, every step will be worth it."

We couldn't have said it better ourselves.

Every day, Triple Skillz helps young people overcome the challenges they face by providing positive opportunities, trusted mentors, and the confidence to believe in themselves.

If you'd like to support Pardeep's challenge and help create more positive opportunities for local young people, we'd be incredibly grateful for your donation.

Please donate today: https://www.justgiving.com/charity/tripleskillzcharity
Good luck, Pardeep—we'll all be cheering you on!

Nearly one million young people in the UK are currently not in education, employment or training.

Behind that number are real young people — unsure of their next step, struggling to access opportunities, and often feeling disconnected or alone.

For many, it’s not ability that’s missing. It’s support, confidence, and someone to believe in them. That’s why mentoring matters.

Sometimes the biggest change in a young person’s life starts with something simple: someone listening, encouraging them, and showing up consistently.

Right now, we urgently need more volunteer mentors to support young people through our Aspire Mentoring Project.

You don’t need to be an expert — just someone willing to give 1–2 hours a week and make a difference.

👉 If you’d like to get involved or stay updated on our work, join our mailing list here: https://www.tripleskillz.charity/contact/

📩 You’ll also receive our latest newsletter, sharing real stories from young people, parents, and mentors.

Please feel free to share — it could reach someone who wants to make a difference.
