COVID19 - Remote Youth Work (360G-Walcot-0061E00001IPJLtQAP)

£24,680

Prior to lockdown BIGKID Foundation ran a minimum of 13 different sessions (including youth club and sports clubs) across multiple school and community sites in Lambeth and Lewisham, engaging between 150-200 young people each week. This funding is to support the continuation and growth of their virtual youth work programme that has replaced face to face work during lockdown. They plan to offer sessions 6 days a week including fitness, challenge videos, leadership sessions, mentoring (one to one and group), music listening parties, games tournaments, workshops (money, relationships, mental health) and a book club. Further to this, they would like to employ a small team of outreach workers (youth club members who have completed more than a 100 hours of volunteering with BIGKID) who will facilitate access to and support sessions and launch a C19 'helpline' (connecting with young people struggling with their mental or physical health or in need of essential supplies) and use approx £1500 to purchase f ood, utilities top-ups and technology that they can provide to those families who are suffering the greatest economic hardship.
