EMPOWER FUTURES campaign

Help Spiral Skills to Raise £20k to empower young people.

Our goal at Spiral Skills is to empower young people, to ensure every young person has the opportunity to develop essential skills for the world of work and to connect them with meaningful opportunities that shape a brighter  future.

Our #EmpowerFutures crowdfund campaign goal is to raise £20,000 by December to help us expand our services from The Factory, a new youth space designed for skills-building, well-being, and opportunity.

Mental Health & Wellbeing: help Address a Growing Crisis

44% of underserved young people are experiencing severe psychological distress, with 75% unable to access the support they need (UCL, Trust for London). The COVID-19 pandemic has only worsened mental health challenges, leaving many feeling isolated and without a support network.

Our trauma-informed programmes focus on emotional and mental well-being, providing young people with access to one-to-one mentoring, therapeutic support, and community connections. We help young people improve their mental health while preparing them for employment and education.

Break the Cycle of Exclusion: help Empower Young People

In 2022/23, over 9,000 students were permanently excluded from school, with 44% more exclusions than the previous year. These young people—often from underserved backgrounds—face significant barriers to future employment and education (UK Gov).

We provide skills development and employment pathways for young people excluded from traditional education. By offering personalised support and holistic programs, we equip young people with the tools they need to break the cycle of exclusion.

support a Safe Space to Build Brighter Futures

Since 2010, £1.1 billion has been cut from youth services, resulting in the closure of over 760 youth centers. This has left many young people without safe spaces to learn, grow, or simply be themselves (Youth Endowment Fund).

We’re a member of The Brixton Factory, a safe, trauma-informed space designed by young people, for young people. This hub will provide mental health support, digital skills training, and entrepreneurial opportunities—all in a space that fosters community and growth.

Spiral’s new HQ will serve as a safe, inclusive environment where young people can thrive.
