helping kids achieve community interest company
London
We are a government funded Community Interest Company (CIC) who are experts in
sport and education. With a background of over 20 years in this sector, we are
creating the next generation of sports professionals and leaders. Currently
working in partnership with 70+ basketball, rugby and cricket clubs nationwide.
Having worked hard to build relationships with the local Nottingham community,
we have been able to provide high quality sports related qualifications, advice
and mentorship. Helping Kids Achieve is about empowering young people,
especially those aged between 5 and 17 with the skills needed to become leaders
by building a better future for the next generation. With the help of a team of
charities and organisations, we will be able to achieve this goal together. From
humble beginnings, Helping Kids Achieve has been featured on Notts TV, The
Nottingham Post, BBC Radio Nottingham, BBC East Midlands and even have won an
award at the BBC Sports Personality of the Year due to the work we provide for
the community. We primarily operate in Bulwell, Bestwood and St. Anns, where we
focus on sports, arts & crafts, music and dance to create a fun environment for
everyone involved. Don’t take our word for it, here are some testimonials from
the kids who come to our sessions: “I like Helping Kids Achieve because it’s
fun, I get to see friends and build confidence. I go to the structured
basketball sessions to practice my matches and Helping Kids Achieve provides us
with fun events like We Day in London and Nottingham. Blue Peter came to our
sessions to film and we had a basketball match with them and not only that, we
are a family.” "I go to the Helping Kids Achieve sessions because I have fun, I
make new friends, I do crafts, I do science, I do sports, I do dance. We are
just like a little family.” “I love how the coaches teach us how to play
basketball and how they make it exciting and meeting all my new friends every
week.”
