Third sector mental health charity
Rising’s mission is to nurture more diverse participation, staffing and leadership across Bristol’s creative sector. We do this by providing 16-25 year olds with professional mentoring, commissioning opportunities, platforms to showcase work, and leadership training. Our USP is the combination of new talent discovery with experienced project management.
We are an inner city youth project working in a full time capacity with hard to reach and disaffected young people. The day work is mainly targeted work, which includes:
-Riverside Youth Project in Education (with education and SSD) to re-engage youngsters by using sport as a platform.
-The Boys Club works at night as a major activity base for young people.
The Rock Community Centre is a centre based in Lawrence Weston providing a facility for people who live in or around the estate. Specific reference is given to the elderly and disabled of all ages.
