For the first time in more than 100 years, young people are in a worse position both financially and mentally than the generation before them. Young people have suffered unprecedented disruption to their educations, social lives, and livelihoods and many are struggling to navigate their futures in these uncertain times. Young people who were already facing serious and complex challenges in their day-to-day lives pre-pandemic, are feeling that they are destined to fail in life.

The Prince’s Trust helps young people facing the greatest adversity to overcome hardship onto a pathway to education, employment and enterprise. Through our established programmes and tailored individual support, we give young people the confidence to take back control. We help them to harness their energy and passion, to reach out for opportunities and achieve their full potential. With your help, we can empower young people to achieve their goals so that they may one day give back to society.
