It was a pleasure to meet Tranai Todd, Founder and CEO, and Zed Choudhury, West Midlands Regional Manager of Support Through Sport, and to hear more about their work with young people across the Midlands.
Using sport, mentoring and youth work, the charity engages young people aged 8–18, providing positive role models, building confidence and resilience, and helping steer them away from anti-social behaviour, violence, gang culture and knife crime.
I was particularly impressed by their focus on early intervention and prevention, using the power of sport to build trusted relationships and help young people make positive choices.
There is real opportunity for businesses, through their ESG and social impact commitments, and public sector organisations across the West Midlands to work in partnership with Support Through Sport and help create better outcomes for boys and young men.
A really inspiring organisation with an important mission.
