The L.I.F.E. Programme© is designed to create individualised pathways to help vulnerable young people fulfil their true potential.
Providing opportunities for young people to engage with positive activities away from potential exploitation, violence and abuse.
We use 1-1 mentoring delivered in a therapeutic way to engage, empower and evolve young people at risk of becoming NEET, permanently excluded, suffering with challenging behavior or have issues surrounding their mental health - by intervening at a crucial time to support overall wellbeing and improve their life chances.
Furthermore, the young person’s perspective is also gained to ensure that activity and its format is aligned to the young person's interests, educational/ employment goals for the future and their motivation to engage. To support this, an initial assessment is completed with the young person during the first month of their residence in a supported RLE placement. Our future focused framework provides the structure supporting young people in re-engaging with education, employment or training.
Our evidence based 4 phase L.I.F.E programme places an emphasis on;
Lifestyle

Being physically active
Healthy eating & quality sleep

Growth mindset: “In a growth mindset, people believe that their most basic abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work—brains and talent are just the starting point.
This view creates a love of learning and a resilience that is essential for great accomplishment.” (Dweck, 2015)
Self-esteem is the belief in one’s own worth and abilities.
It’s an essential component of mental health and wellbeing.
People with high self-esteem are more likely to be confident, motivated, and resilient.
Conversely, individuals with low self-esteem may struggle with self-doubt and negative self-talk.
