As another programme comes to an end, we reflect on the loss of one of our own and the impact he had on those around him.

Kylan had such a positive impact on this group, and made success feel so plausible to them. We wish he could see how far they’ve come!

Over 9 weeks, our Youth Partners have accessed sessions around employability, leadership, life skills and wellbeing and had the opportunity to choose different industry-led sessions, thanks to valued partners like and 💫. They also had the opportunity to undergo a week of work experience, and will soon sit their Level 1 Health & Safety and their CSCS Green Card.

This group have taught us so much about patience, leadership and the importance of connection - all of which Kylan embodied too. We hope they’re as proud of themselves as we are of them!

See you in the next one🧡💙

Did you know that YouthBuild was founded in New York by Dorothy Stoneman in 1978? That’s right, we’re international!🌎

Last week, our Youth Development Lead, Samii, got to experience the wonders of LA thanks to the team at , who took her to 4 of their sites so that she could get a feel for the work they do and the impact they have on their communities.

It’s safe to say she loved LA - but the best thing about this experience was being able to bring back so much inspiration to strengthen our programmes in the U.K tenfold, inline with the wider YB model of delivery.

Big shoutout to for being the best hosts, and for sharing so much knowledge and experience with our team🧡🤍💙

This vid is not for those with sensitive ears…sorry not sorry😅

Whilst the work we do is meaningful and routed in justice for young people, we also have our silly days too!🤪💫

Sound on for wholesomeness🥺🔊

At YBVUK, whilst we love to bring light and laughter…we also cherish the emotional moments.

Capturing good work can be so difficult, in a world of numbers, percentages and impact stats. So, we wanted to share with you the truly meaningful feedback we received from our latest YB100 cohort.

You can’t put a number on a sense of community, belonging, motivation or growth. All of which we at YouthBuild put so much emphasis on as necessary parts of our Youth Partners sustained development.

Our Youth Partners are not just a workforce or a success story; they are human beings with so much to offer the world and we’re proud to say that they have graduated from this programme knowing that.

Bring on the next! See you in Spring💫

YB100 Cohort 21 - over and out✌🏻

Whilst impact statements are important, our Youth Partners know how to deliver real meaning behind their words…even at their silliest, so we couldn’t not share it.

Thank you to the Youth Partners on this programme for their commitment, energy and authenticity. They really do have so much to offer the world around them, and we can’t wait to see them shine✨

Thank you to our valued employer partners for their leadership and support over the last few weeks!
