Why support us?

At Born to Shine, we passionately believe that adventure sports can provide engaging opportunities.

for young people to build their self-development, increase their aspirations, and improve their well-

being. This is why Born to Shine is on a mission to positively impact the lives of young people with

additional needs by empowering them through sports such as tennis, water sports…

Why the community needs us

Youth mental health is a major problem in the UK. Marginalised groups, such as those with

additional sensory, learning, and physical difficulties, are disproportionately affected by low well-

being due to factors including social isolation, communication difficulties, and social prejudice. For

many young people with disabilities, or mental health issues they face barriers to accessing

engaging well-being services, such as physical access, over burdened services, or communication

access.

Our impact on the community

Each of us at Born to Shine have worked in the Charity sector for over 15 years and strive to give

back to the community and we know that this new charity will help us to do this.
