Greenhouse Schools Project

About the charity

Greenhouse empowers young people through sport and performing arts, helping them to overcome adversity and achieve their goals by: raising aspirations and achievements, improving behaviour and developing positive life skills. We deliver structured sport and performing arts programmes in schools and community clubs that are based in areas of high deprivation, reaching out to include young people from marginalised groups.

How we do it:

Full-time programmes

We engage young people on full-time programmes that are delivered throughout the year, in both term time and the school holidays.

High-quality coaching

Our coaches possess a high level of technical expertise, delivering structured, organised and effective programmes.

Positive role-modelling and mentoring

Our coaches work as positive role models and mentors, engaging and developing young people throughout the critical years of their life.

Competitions and performances

We provide opportunities for young people to prepare for, experience and participate in competitions and performances.

Post-16 coaching and volunteering opportunities

We support and prepare young people who come through our programmes to become future leaders by training them as volunteer coaches and mentors.
