Someone who loves seeing young people find confidence, connection, and joy – often for the first time in a while?

We re working with a brilliant Hampshire based sports provision supporting young people who thrive through movement, mentoring, and trust. This isn t a school – it s a local alternative sports provision that gives students a chance to reset and rebuild.

It s a calm, caring environment where every day begins with a smile, a chat, and a sense of belonging. Where relationships come first and progress follows naturally.
