The Key

The Key have been empowering young people to create better futures for over 30 years through their skills development programme, the KEY+ Challenge.   

We're joining forces with them on a special project - The Key to Find Your Spark. Built on The Key's proven youth-led model, this project is designed specifically to support young people to uncover new interests, ignite passions, and explore their sense of purpose. We will support 144 young people across the North East of England, empowering them to discover a passion and lead their own personal growth. 

Once young people identify the passion they want to pursue, they will have access to a small bursary fund via prepaid debit cards to help support some of the costs of pursuing it. 

What we loved about The Key’s project is the extent to which young people on the programme are supported to take ownership of their choices and lead every aspect of their journey to discover and pursue their passions. It's clear to us that with The Key’s track record of delivering measurable impact and piloting innovative ideas, this project has potential to help many young people to find lasting joy.
