Future Skills Training - Skills for Life, Personal Development and Mentoring for young people in South London

At Future Skills we aim to Care for, Empower and Give Hope to our young people. Below are our values explained.

Caring

We seek to offer a level of care that impacts on an individual level, meeting young people’s physical, emotional and spiritual needs. As a result we prioritise individual, attentive care recognising the need and importance of meaningful personal relationships. To do so we seek to collaborate with the other influences in the individual’s life.

In response to the backgrounds that have shaped the young people we work with, we seek to make ourselves available and accessible while also reinforcing healthy acceptable social boundaries.

Empowering

We seek to be a voice of hope to marginalised young people. To do so we seek to educate and train them in practical personal and social skills. Additionally we aim to arouse a higher level of self-esteem while also building self-worth in order to enable them to develop aspirations of their own.

Giving Hope

We seek to challenge and reinforce the perceptions, values and perspectives of vulnerable young people through the methodology behind our activities and programmes, in order to help them discover their own potential. Enabling them to develop a healthy, well rounded and appropriate outlook on society so that they may participate and find their role in their local community.

Our understanding and our belief is motivated by Christian values and the example of Jesus Christ. We will not impose that belief on others, but we set out to demonstrate that, regardless of choices made or the circumstances that beset, all young people have the potential to be fully integrated members of our society and should have the opportunity to prosper emotionally and physically, to discover a better future.
