In this podcast created by Greenhouse Sports we'll be hearing from a host of inspiring people from across the canvas of life - sport, business, the arts, education and more. They will tell us about who and what inspired them, as well as what they want to share and pass on. Some guests are known to millions and are household names, some not in public life at all but their stories and inspirations are no less extraordinary.
Greenhouse Sports is the charity that uses sport to help disadvantaged young people and communities.
Their core belief is that every child deserves opportunities and a fair chance to succeed in life. And through Greenhouse's Coaches and partners, they look to make that a reality.
2022 is Greenhouse Sports 20th anniversary.
They are very proud that in 20 years the charity has worked with more than 50,000 children in London, keeping them engaged with education, helping them achieve better results, better jobs and a better future.
Their magic is the Greenhouse Coach, unique individuals who are sports coach, trained mentor and role-model combined - they engage with kids through sport, and teach them the life-skills they need.
There are 4 million children in situations just like those Greenhouse has supported across the UK right now. They missing out on opportunity and Greenhouse Sports has proven there is a way to level-up their life chances. You too can help them support another generation of young people as they begin our next 20 years.
This podcast is proudly supported by players of People’s Postcode Lottery who have awarded Greenhouse Sports more than £2.2m to help more young people from disadvantaged backgrounds access life-changing coaching.
