Your Trust

Your Trust work in partnership with other local partners to provide evening sessions across the different Boroughs of Rochdale for local residents aged 8 to 16.

Delivered by qualified Your Trust coaches in communities that need them most, activities include cricket, football, racket sports, arts and crafts. We also work with external providers to offer a wider range of opportunities, including hairdressing, barbering, inclusive football and martial arts, helping young people stay active, develop new skills and engage positively within their communities.

Back in the Game is a six-week school-based programme supporting students with behavioural, emotional and anxiety-related challenges. Working with external providers and local organisations, it combines sports and classroom activities to help young people develop confidence, resilience and positive decision-making. Sessions explore real-life issues such as bullying, overcoming barriers and recognising hate crime.

121 Mentoring and Personal Training programme supports young people aged 11 to 19 who are involved in, or at risk of becoming involved in, criminality and anti-social behaviour. Referrals are primarily made through Youth Justice Services. Participants receive inductions, personal training sessions and the opportunity to access a six-month gym and swim membership. The programme provides positive mentoring, promotes healthy lifestyles and offers a safe, supportive environment away from risks associated with offending behaviour.

Strengthening Grassroots Sport to Support Young People at Risk of Serious Youth Violence Across Rochdale Borough is a Boroughwide partnership programme aimed at strengthening grassroots sport and physical activity organisations across all Rochdale townships. The programme supports trusted local clubs and community groups to better engage young people who are at risk of, or already involved in, crime and serious youth violence. Building on Your Trust’s established Mentoring Programme and Doorstep Sport Clubs, this initiative aims to expand positive pathways for young people, ensuring they have safe, high‑quality, accessible activities that help them lead active, healthy, and successful lives. Activities on offer include Thai Boxing, Boxing, Martial Arts and Fishing sessions.
