Original Press Release
Swindon, November 2011 - The Youth Life Project charity has been launched in response to the media scrutiny of the youth following the August riots of 2011 to communicate the thoughts, feelings and concerns of the unheard youth.

The Youth Life Project aims to restore the faith lost in young people and equip them with the skills required to make positive life choices. Providing a service for young people in the region aged 10-19 to utilise, The Youth Life Project is born from the passion of its founder Danielle Brown for the care and well-being of young people. 



The Youth Life Project Founder Danielle, 27, has extensive experience in the charity arena working on a voluntary basis with children of all ages in youth centres and youth groups. As a keen organiser of fundraising events, creating a charity close to her heart was always going to be Danielle’s next step.

“Building a better and brighter future for the next generation of young people was the driving force behind taking my passion of charity work to the next level”, said Danielle. “Young carers, parents and the vulnerable are all in need of a voice that will speak up for them and this is what we strive to do at The Youth Life Project. We need to hear more about the positive things the young people are doing“

“We are committed to providing help and support for young people, to help them reach their full potential. These young adults are in great need of inspirational role-models and at The Youth Life Project we intend to support their development to become upstanding citizens and role models. “I remain a huge believer in community spirit and embracing that spirit with the youth. It is important that we ensure youth feel a sense of belonging and consider themselves key stakeholders in their communities in order for them to be the best that they can be.”

TYLP ANNOUNCE ‘SAVE SWINDON’S YOUTH SECTOR’ CAMPAIGN


Swindon, June 2012 - With cuts across the youth sector threatening the closure of many youth clubs in Swindon, voluntary organisation The Youth Life Project have announced a refocused approach to their short term objectives to reflect the needs of the community and the young people that live in the region by launching the ‘Save Swindon’s Youth Sector’ campaign in August 2012.

Following extensive networking and feedback from youth groups across the Swindon area TYLP will be offering flexible support to other youth organisations and establishing partnerships through the ‘Save Swindon’s Youth Sector’ campaign at a time when budget cuts and lack of resources threaten the sector. By working together with Swindon’s youth groups, TYLP are aiming to help sustain the youth services sector in times of financial austerity.

“From the conversations we have engaged in with youth organisations we understand that currently Swindon doesn’t need another youth club, which is what our long term goal was, instead it needs help supporting and building on what’s already here.” said TYLP founder Danielle Brown. “Many youth groups have expressed real concerns that the cuts being made across the youth charity sector would be detrimental to the great work already being put in.”

The Youth Life Project aims to restore the faith lost in young people and equip them with the skills required to make positive life choices. Providing a service for young people in the region aged 10-19 to utilise, The Youth Life Project is born from the passion of its founder Danielle Brown for the care and well-being of young people.

“Acting as guardian angels of Swindon’s youth services, we will be working hard to alleviate some of the pressure youth organisations are currently experiencing with budgets and financial support shrinking year on year. By working alongside the many youth groups already existing in Swindon we aim to offer support in whatever way is needed including fundraising to help organisations provide services that are key to engaging the youth.”

An aspect of support The Youth Life Project will be offering to youth groups includes work-shops in beauty, music, street art and sports. In addition crucial awareness and life skills classes will be provided to help youngsters in areas such as budgeting and building self-esteem.

“We will launch the ‘Save Swindon’s Youth Sector’ campaign at the ‘SN1Fest Summer Ball: In Association with the Youth Life Project’. Monies raised from the event will go towards TYLP’S sister project ‘The Youthy...The interactive Youth Club’ which we will continue to make a priority throughout the summer alongside the SSYS campaign.” concluded Danielle Brown.

THE SUN COMES OUT FOR SWINDON BASED YOUTH CHARITY

                     
                                                              The Youth Life Project 
 
 Swindon, May 2012 – Following the launch of The Youth Life Project (TYLP) in October 2011, the registered charity has recently held its first fundraising event taking place in Swindon over the spring. In a bid to raise £2,000 for the charity over a number of events this spring, the fundraiser marked the first landmark event since the formation of The Youth Life Project.


The Youth Life Project aims to restore the faith lost in young people and equip them with the skills required to make positive life choices. Providing a service for young people in the region aged 10-19 to utilise, The Youth Life Project is born from the passion of its founder Danielle Brown for the care and well-being of young people.


The event held at The Running Horse Pub on Wooton Bassett Road, Swindon on Monday 7th May successfully raised over £350 for the charity. On what started as a day with heavy rainfall eventually panned out to be a fun day for all the family, the sun also came out in attendance to mark a memorable day for The Youth Life Project team.


"I am delighted the event went so well" said TYLP founder Danielle Brown. "We were encouraged by the amount of visitors who attended and the feedback from parents was amazing. The best part was seeing the children having a fun on the day as we were a little worried about the weather to begin with. The day was certainly a hit with everyone who enjoyed the activities on offer such as the bouncy castle and Zumba lessons. We even had a karaoke and a disco. It was amazing to see the kids with their faces painted and hair braided in TYLP colours"


"We really did have something suitable for every age group and this will be the platform for more fundraising events for the community to get involved with. The aim of the fundraising events is to raise money for our online youth club 'The Youthy' which we hope will be an even bigger hit for the community.


"We have a number of bigger, more exciting events in the works and will be announcing a date for The Youth Life Project’s official launch party shortly, which will be held late summer 2012. TYLP has come a long way since our formation and we will continue to strive to bring a better tomorrow for our youth," concluded Danielle.
