Every term in Some Voices we support a charity of our choice. We fundraise throughout the term for them and include them in the big end of term gig too. We usually put it out to our members to nominate charities, but this term the leaders and internal team have nominated The Princes Trust.
The Prince’s Trust is a youth charity that helps young people transform their lives by developing the confidence and skills to live, learn, and earn. The Prince’s Trust offers a variety of different programmes and services for young people aged between 11 and 30. The programmes and services are designed to support young people to develop and apply new and emerging skills.
Many of the young people helped by The Prince’s Trust are struggling at school or at risk of exclusion, have low aspirations, and are unemployed.
Young people may also be facing issues such as mental health difficulties, living in or leaving care, homelessness, have chaotic or unstable lifestyles, or have been in trouble with the law.
The Prince of Wales’ charity has helped over 970,000 young people since 1976 and supports over 100 more each day.
The next challenge for the trust is to support a million more young people across the next decade, so support from Some Voices will play an amazing part in helping to raise awareness for these young people, as well as share our message to a huge audience.
