At Rise In Unity, we provide young people with tailored education, driven by genuine care for their future—not profit. We need funding to set up this venture, offering fresh meals, life skills, and education, while ensuring long-term sustainability. At Rise In Unity, our mission is to offer young people an alternative to mainstream education with a focus on personalised support, practical life skills, and qualifications that will shape their futures. Unlike many alternative provisions, we are driven by a genuine commitment to helping every student succeed, not profit. We aim to create a space where students receive tailored education, nutritious meals, and valuable life lessons, like cooking and fitness, that go beyond the classroom. However, we need the funding to continue setting up this venture. While we have a solid business plan to maintain the project in the long term, we need support to get it off the ground and sustain it during the initial stages. We already work with mainstream schools and alternative provisions by providing PE sessions during the week but would like to further this by offering a qualification for students to prove the progress made with us. Your help will provide us with the resources to establish this impactful initiative—giving young people the education, care, and opportunities they deserve. Our current services offered are on evenings, we offer Brazilian Jiu Jitsu sessions to Kids, adults, women-only. These services are chargeable by the day, no need to sign contract with fees. We also offer Personal training sessions with highly experienced staff.
