STAA is a small charity based at the historic St Anns Allotments site, just a mile from the bustling city centre of Nottingham. STAA manages a number of highly regarded projects across 30+ plots at St Anns Allotments providing community benefit & offering a wide variety of volunteering opportunities. Our projects make a significant contribution to the upkeep of this amazing Grade 2* listed heritage site and the preservation of habitat and wildlife in the urban oasis at St Anns Allotments. STAA was initially established in 1997, from a local campaign group that came together with the prime objective of saving and protecting the St Anns Allotment site (Hungerhill Gardens, Stonepit Coppice Gardens and Gorseyclose Gardens) from redevelopment. STAA became a registered charity in 1998 and over the course of 20 years have been key partners in the delivery of large-scale infrastructure and Heritage Lottery Fund projects which have contributed to the restoration and regeneration of St Anns Allotments. Our research projects have also captured much of the St Anns Allotments’ unique history. STAA managed the allotment site and tenancies until December 2017 through a service level agreement with Hungerhill Developments Ltd. The site is now managed directly by HDL. In July 2020, STAA converted to a Foundation CIO* and continues its commitment to protecting, preserving and promoting the heritage, horticultural, wildlife and community value of St Anns Allotments. STAA works inside and outside the site gates with local schools, community groups and partner organisations to promote the heritage of the site, provide education and volunteering opportunities along with social welfare, recreational and leisure activities to improve the wellbeing of our wider communities in St Ann’s, Mapperley and inner-city Nottingham. Our website is designed to give visitors a broader understanding of our organisation and our varied projects including:

Hi! I’m Sarahlynn Hodder, the founder of Bettering Youth I'm so pleased that you’re here to find out more about our passion to support children on their academic and emotional learning journeys, whether that be at home or in schools. Bettering Youth is an Ascot-based tuition company, and we’re on a mission to help children excel both in the classroom and beyond! I created Bettering Youth back in 2017. Over the years we have established ourselves as the only tutoring service that focuses on emotional and mental wellbeing of children. Our unique approach sets us apart and establishes us as leading tutoring providers and mental wellbeing coaches. We work with families in the following capacities: preparing for 11+ exams, studying for common entrance exams study skills and tutoring for GCSE exams building confidence in Maths, supporting reluctant readers, inspiring hesitant creative writers creating full academic learning journeys for home educating families coaching children one-to-one on emotional issues (anger, anxiety, OCD, body image) Both myself and the team of highly experienced tutors are profoundly passionate about teaching children: not only academically but emotionally as well. We’re all experienced teachers who are dedicated to supporting our students’ welfare above and beyond the academic requirements. As educators, our role is never simply to teach the curriculum; our goal is always to support the development of our amazing young people who all have emotions and worries, the same as you and me. Whether you work directly with me or one of my hand-picked team, rest assured that you’ll always receive the same Bettering Youth quality and value. All tutors undergo a rigorous selection process, hold an emotional wellbeing certification, and undertake a monthly workshop to ensure we're all presenting high-quality academic and pastoral care to support your child to thrive.
