RESOURCES FOR YOU

A pensive young black man crouches in an exhibition about heritage, considering the posters and pictures surrounding him.

We’ve gone through a journey of learning, reflection, and improvement and we want to help other organisations and individuals do the same.

How can you use these resources?

Young people can develop the project management skills you need to support your goals and future career prospects.

Organisations can develop an effective co-creation practice to genuinely engage young people and minoritised communities beyond ticking boxes.

You can learn how to shape a more inclusive and equitable sector through genuine intersectionality and decolonisation.

Young people and their allies can be equipped with the knowledge, tools, and strategies to drive systemic change through representation and influence.

We Don’t Settle Fit for the Future is made possible with The National Lottery Heritage Fund. Thanks to National Lottery players, we have been able to create these guidebooks.
