The Thrive program was trialled at Mary’s. Thrive is footballer and
social campaigner Marcus Rashford MBE’s life skills program. It has
been developed with the National Youth Agency and sponsored by
NatWest.
The course is to improve confidence and life skills. In particular its
goals are to increase money management and aspiration. Mary’s was
delighted to be chosen to further our course development expertise
co-creating this program to match young people’s needs.
83 individuals attended the Thrive course run at Mary’s with a total
of 149 hours attended. Young people covered the modules ‘Money
Talks’, ‘Own Your Vision’ and ‘Money Mindset’. Of these 82% were
Male and 11% Female (5% not recorded). The age range was 1% age
10-11, 19% age 12-13, 46% age 14-15 and 33% age 16+. Positive changes
were recorded in each of the eight outcomes of the program.
“If we give back to
young people it will
help the future.”
