Welcome to Worth Unlimited

1:1 Mentoring, (Barrier removal)

We offer 1:1 and group mentoring, both in the community setting or in the school setting.  Our community based mentoring works with individuals enabling them to overcome barriers that might hinder them from developing and engaging in education and or community activities.  Our school based provision is based around a 6 week personal and social development programme. Contact us if you are interested in partnering with us.

“The additional support we have received from Worth Unlimited is so valuable, especially to some our most vulnerable students.  The mentoring and support offered to these students is something we just could not offer in school”  Mr Pete Higgins, Headteacher

Safe spaces

We run a number of open access youth clubs, groups and afterschool clubs providing young people with a safe space to connect with their peers and have fun, ask questions and build community.

Youth Social Action

“Youth Social Action is Young people taking practical action in the service of others to create positive change in their community”

Schools Based:

We run a 6 week schools based programme enabling students to explore community, their gifts, skills and passions and work with them to plan and deliver a youth led community project.

WeCan - Community Based YSA:

Our “We Can” sessions engage local young people in long term intergenerational Youth Social Action.  Helping young people to connect with their neighbours and have a role within their community through meaningful, youth led,  social action projects.

Street Connecting

Meeting young people where they are at.  We are passionate about “widening the circles” of our youth work.  through our youth connector detach team we engage young people, building relationship with groups of young people down the park, on the street corners, outside the shops, wrking with young people “where they are at”

We see social enterprise as a key way of enabling young people to learn the core skills they need to flourish and develop business and employability skills.. Here in Birmingham we run two business’,  Listen Threads and Gear Up. To find out more please click the links below.

Together We Can! is a 3-year intergenerational, community-building project within the Firs & Bromford neighbourhood which we run with our partner, Open Door Community Foundation.  

It is partially funded by the Big Lottery and partially by Firs & Bromford Neighbours Together (Big Local funding). The project brings together youth work and adult-focused community-building work to maximise the opportunities for intergenerational (as well as cross-cultural) interaction and relationship-building, as we seek to support both young people and adults on a developmental journey from ‘first contact’, through ‘clearing obstacles’ and ‘pathways in to participation’, towards being able to ‘make meaningful contributions’ (within the neighbourhood and wider), and to develop skills, confidence and connections to initiate and lead their own groups and activities.

Across the two ‘age bands’ (young people and adults), TWC! pursues two parallel ‘strands’ of work: ‘street connecting’ (making connections with, and between, local people, and growing new forms of associational life from those connections), and ‘support and development’ (supporting local people to grow in the confidence, skills and connections needed to be able to participate in and contribute to the life of their neighbourhood, and wider).
