The Rise Up Programme is a free training initiative designed for individuals working with young people in both paid and voluntary capacities. This includes faith leaders, sports coaches, teaching assistants, youth workers, and community leaders to name a few. Funded by the VRU, this programme aims to provide up-to-date and relevant training to practitioners, enhancing their confidence and skills in youth work and providing them the tools to best support the young people they work with.

The programme offers two versions, both of which allow practitioners to join a growing network of Youth Practitioners who connect through themed networks and WhatsApp Communities.

You will find a guide outlining the differences between the two versions of the programme here.

Applications are now open and remain open on a rolling basis until all programmes are full.
