Inspiring Youth Achievement (INSPYA) aims to encourage, support and inspire young people to achieve their ambitions. The organisation achieves its aims through mentoring, self-development workshops and career workshops.
Our objective is to advance the education and training of young people under the age of 25 years for the public benefit in particular but not exclusively by providing mentoring, self-development workshops, career events, networking opportunities and training programmes, advice.
Unfortunately, due to a lack of funding we were unable to continue our Equip to Succeed in Ghana. However, we delivered online career workshops providing support to University students in Ghana to develop their career skills and increase their chances of securing employment. We also continued our support for Bruce Grove Youth Club with the development of projects and supporting activities for young people within Tottenham.
