Support Through Sport are seeking highly ambitious, experienced, and forward-thinking individuals to join our rapidly-growing organisation as members of our Strategic Advisory Board. This strategic board will work directly with our Senior Leadership Team to influence critical decision making and constructively challenge the implementation of our strategy. The Strategic Advisory Board will meet monthly with our SLT, providing an opportunity for the board to support organisational growth and the shaping of our organisation for the benefit of the young people and communities which we serve.
At Support Through Sport CIC, we primarily use sport-based intervention and focussed youth mentoring to support and empower young people who face multiple disadvantage. Our work is focussed within communities of need, where negative influences are typically more prevalent and deprivation is within the 20% most deprived areas in the UK. We know that, given the social and environmental factors surrounding children and young people in these particular communities, their vulnerability to involvement in negative influences such as knife crime, offending, gang culture, anti-social behaviour, violence and low-level crime is disproportionately high.
Through a varied approach, which encompasses eight key aspects, the implementation of our sport and mentoring intervention programmes within underserved communities, work to progress young people to achieving a range of soft and hard outcomes. Our overall mission statement is to Engage [young people who face multiple disadvantage, additional vulnerabilities and needs], Empower [young people through sustainable and impactful community intervention programmes] and Eradicate [negative influences which surround young people, their families and the wider community].
As a member of our Strategic Advisory Board, we would like you to develop a detailed understanding of our operations, vision, aims and objectives in order to guide and support the implementation of our strategy across all areas of the organisation. As an organisation, we have developed considerably in the short time that we have been operational and our impact within this time has been outstanding. We feel that this board will support the further development of our organisation, providing expertise, knowledge and direction to a thriving organisation with such potential within the sport and youth work sector.
