Support for at risk and vulnerable young people

Empowering tomorrow’s changemakers

Youth programmes

We support disadvantaged young people aged 13+ through critical transitional periods onto post-16 pathways to access sustainable opportunities for progression in education, training, and work.

Who, how and why

We prioritise support for disadvantaged young people who are:

  • Care-experienced, including those currently in care or leaving care
  • At risk of offending, criminal exploitation, or with experience of the youth justice system
  • Disabled or neurodivergent
  • From low-income households or racially minoritised backgrounds
  • Not in education, employment or training (NEET), or at risk of becoming NEET.

We don’t work for people, we work with people. We listen to the needs of underserved communities and marginalised groups and co-create programmes with social value and impact.

We support young people to share their experiences becoming changemakers of the future. Whether leading or quietly influencing, they use their experiences to inspire others and create positive change.

Any surplus generated by Limitless Learning Group CIC will be reinvested directly into our mission to create inclusive and supported pathways into education, training, and employment for underrepresented young people.

Lost learning

A growing crisis of lost learning is holding back too many young people. Without engagement in school, we can’t raise attainment, improve job prospects, or meet the UK’s wider goals (source: IPPR 2025).
