What to expect
How sessions help
‘This is the first time I have been on a course that has been all about me, the coaches really helped me to find out what is was that I wanted to do and I now feel confident enough to go for an interview’
YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND BE PART OF BEEP
Our Trustees
Our Team
We are delighted to have the support of a fantastic team of trustees, helping to make sure BEEP continues to run great programmes and ongoing volunteer mentoring support, to provide young people with the very best opportunities to move forward positively with their lives.
Our diverse team of Ambassadors promote BEEP. Venues and facilities are always essential to the programme and the use of these are regularly donated by businesses and other organisations.
We cannot do this without YOUR support. BEEP does not receive any government funding and all our programmes rely on donations and fundraising.
All of the Trustees would like to THANK everyone who engages with our charity, all support is massively appreciated.
Sandra Sampson
“I am extremely proud to be one of the founding trustees of BEEP. The work we do has a positive and life changing impact, not only for the young people we work with but also for their families and the community they live in. I am committed to helping people to move forward positively with their lives.
Hazel Tucker
“I became a trustee of BEEP after seeing the real difference the programmes make to the life chances of individuals. My organisation has employed a young person who was struggling with life and finding it very difficult to gain employment. The programme provided him with the skills and tools needed to move his life forward positively”
Oenone Thomas
“I feel privileged to be a BEEP trustee. BEEP makes a difference by combining the positive forces of businesses, communities and individuals to work with young people who have struggled to find employment. Like everyone involved in BEEP I truly believe that ‘every individual matters’ and that given opportunity, skills and confidence every young person has the potential to lead an independent and fulfilling life. It is a reward in itself.”
