OUR IMPACT

WE USE THE POWER OF FOOTBALL TO SHAPE THE NEXT GENERATION

Young people from disadvantaged backgrounds are twice as likely to not be in education, employment or training than their better-off peers, with long-term consequences for their employability, confidence and earning.

In addition, by completing sixth form, young people are 50% more likely to gain meaningful employment.

Kinetic work with young people who are traditionally difficult to engage through our impactful inner-city football and education programmes.

  • THE NEED

    The UK has low levels of social mobility and high levels of youth unemployment. This is disproportionately affected by one’s social and demographic background.

  • OUR VISION

    Young people's outcomes are not disproportionately affected by their social and demographic background.​

  • OUR PURPOSE

    Use football to engage young people and support them to complete Post-16 education whilst developing their social and emotional skills.

OUR WHY

The youth unemployment rate in London is alarmingly high.

Unemployment figures are disproportionately affected by one’s social and demographic backgrounds. We exist to give young people the opportunities to improve their employment potential.
