About Us

Established in 2002, Greenhouse Sports is a youth charity using sport to drive social mobility. This means we're intentional in our use of sport to support social change. Sport is our hook to engage young people, and one of the vehicles we use to support youth development. But we're not here to create elite athletes or tackle physical inactivity. Instead, we create opportunities for young people to recognise their strengths and develop the skills they need to thrive, now and in the future. Working across London, Portsmouth and Leicester, specifically in areas of high deprivation, we embed evidence-based positive youth development programmes into primary and secondary schools. These programmes are delivered by our trusted, high-quality Coach-Mentors who deliver year-round to ensure that young people have access to sport, mentoring, enrichment and employability activities. Every year, we support over 9,000 young people to attend school more often, improve their wellbeing and raise their aspirations, transforming life chances in the communities that need us most.
