Testimonials

I’ve become more productive since knowing you. I appreciate you listening, your patience, and your experience has helped me to think and broaden my outlook on life. Thank you for being someone that cares, that I trust and feel I can always talk to.

I look forward to our mentoring sessions and need to be at my best as I know you will challenge me. You never judge me, what you say always has relevance and you make it real in my world. Thank you.

Sunit (Mentor), the way L speaks of you, your name is gold in this household.

We can’t thank you enough for everything you have done for L. Honestly, appreciate it so much.

Our learner has become so confident, like a different child, thank you.

J is getting so much from his sessions and is increasingly confident in school and is increasingly emotionally resilient! You have been amazing at organising these extra curricular opportunities for him which broaden his horizons and help him to think about his future prospects. You are doing a wonderful job! This has been a transformational experience for J and has supported his integration into school and capacity to share interests with peers! You have been amazing.

Sporting Chance Project Mentors played a key part in supporting a very complex and vulnerable permanently excluded young person. A carefully coordinated programme of mentoring support and education enabled the young person to achieve Maths and English Literature and Language (Grade 4+) and access college, avoiding a second permanent exclusion. It is an example of true collaboration between the education setting and AP having a successful impact on a young person's life.

I feel that Sporting Chance Project through their positive and trusting relationship with the young person gave me the opportunity to support and advocate for the young person in their engagement and assessment with CAMHS

Thank you so much for everything you have done for H during her time at Sporting Chance. Your patience, encouragement, and support have helped her grow in confidence and develop a real love for boxing.

We are incredibly grateful for all the time and effort you have invested in her, and we feel very lucky that she can continue her boxing journey with you. It means so much to know she will still have your guidance and support moving forward. Thank you again for everything you have done for H. We truly appreciate it and look forward to seeing her continue to grow and thrive with your help.

Mentors were approachable, positive, professional and created a trusting relationship with the young person, parents and other professionals in the network

We can’t thank you enough, and everyone who has worked with H, for all the support, care, and encouragement you have given her. The progress she has made has been amazing, and we are so grateful for the part you have played in her journey. It’s incredibly sad to see this chapter come to an end, but we will always look back with gratitude and appreciation for everything you have done. You have made such a positive difference to H’s life, and that is something we will never forget. Thank you for everything. We wish you all the very best for the future, and you will always hold a special place in our hearts.

Thank you for your support and professional approach, commitment and dedication as an individual and as a team to really advocate and support a positive experience and relationship with them and also myself as a professional. Really amazing to have been able to be part of the journey and supporting my role with the young person, family and network.

We would like to thank each and everyone of you at SCP. Words cannot express how grateful we are for what you have done for W. He has come so far from when he first started with you and we have you to thank for that. I know he is going to miss seeing you all but it feels like the right time to move on and start his new chapter of his life.

Throughout my son's educational years, I have had to fight with professionals to get him an education. I was not one of these parents who didn’t care. Without your support, hard work and compassion, my son wouldn’t be the happy, vibrant lad he has become. The bond and trust he has with his SCP mentor is amazing. I have to say he is a credit to Sporting Chance. You both worked your socks off for months to get my son this happy. I will be eternally grateful. Your company goes above and beyond. Thank you, Tony. Your support has changed my son's life

Sporting Chance was a great way for me to get back into school while having fun playing my favourite sports. My teachers at Sporting Chance were very helpful with getting me to focus on my school work and eventually getting me to work independently.

Sporting Chance Project, in conjunction with my school, helped me to focus on my academic studies, which allowed me to participate in sport alongside my Maths and English qualifications. I am now travelling to New Zealand following a two-year spell in Australia. This wouldn't have been possible without all of the help I've received along the way.
