|||||Level Up Gosport fLUPG) has been established||
|||||for almost 12years, supporting<br>young adults||
|Summary<br>of the main<br>achievements<br>ofthe charity,|||Para 1.20|aged 18- 25years to gain self-respect<br>and<br>confidence via community<br>volunteering<br>for||
|identifying|the|difference the||local charities and organisations<br>based in and||
|charity's|work|has made to||around Gosport. Previously,<br>it was a||
|the circumstances<br>of its<br>beneficiaries<br>and any wider<br>benefits to sodety as a<br>whole.||||community<br>organisation<br>known as Loud 8<br>Proud, but in 2021the Trustees voted to<br>constitute as an independent<br>charity and this||
|||||was approved<br>by The Charities Commission|in|
|||||July 2022.||
|||||LUPG has developed<br>an excellent reputation||
|||||within Gosport and is very proud to announce||
|||||that 80/o ofthe vulnerable<br>young people it||
|||||supports<br>have gone on to either secure||
|||||employment,<br>returned to education orto||
|||||independently<br>volunteer.<br>However,<br>this||





||||benchmark<br>needed to be evidenced,<br>which<br>is|
|---|---|---|---|
||||why we have involved<br>OWL XLCICto help us to|
||||capture the positive outcomes we are|
||||achieving<br>via the software they have|
||||developed<br>and monitor.|
||||The majority ofthe young adults that LUPG|
||||supports<br>have an additional<br>need or a mild|
||||learning/physical<br>(hidden, neurodivergent)|
||||disability; or have mental<br>health challenges,|
||||like lacking in confidence or high anxiety levels|
||||-but are not in receipt ofan Education,<br>Health|
||||or Care Plan (EHCP) or are NEET (not in|
||||Employment,<br>Education orTraining). Many|
||||come from areas of high deprivation<br>which has|
||||been exacerbated<br>lately by the pandemic<br>and|
||||recently because ofthe cost-of-living<br>crisis.|
||||WEXi (Work Experience initiative)<br>is being|
||||developed to offer a free, innovative,<br>varied|
||||programme<br>ofsupported<br>outcome-based<br>work|
||||experience,<br>partnering<br>with local organisations,|
||||businesses<br>and charities, e.g.,a local garage,|
||||cafe, community-led<br>entertainment<br>venue,|
||||Sheltered<br>Housing charity, plus many more.|
||||We believe that the young, vulnerable<br>adults|
||||we support<br>will receive practical experience|
||||(via volunteering),<br>consolidated<br>by training<br>and|
||||a support<br>pathway<br>into employment.<br>We|
||||intend to launch<br>WEXi in June 2023.|
||||We have recently engaged<br>and were grateful|
||||to receive some funding from "Communities|
||||Against Cancer" whereupon<br>we sourced a|
||||facilitator to train our young people to become|
||||Cancer Awareness<br>Youth Ambassadors<br>for|
||||Gosport.<br>Our young people found these|
||||workshops<br>very engaging<br>and extremely<br>useful.|
||||Until WEXi is launched<br>and alongside this, the|
||||LUPG young people will continue to|
||||participate,<br>via volunteering,<br>at local activities|
||||and events, attend a fortnightly<br>volunteers|
||||meeting, as well as cultivating<br>their own|
||||allotment,<br>where they learn horticultural<br>skills|
||||with the aim ofbecoming 100/0 organic and|
||||sustainable.<br>The older allotment<br>holders enjoy|
||||engaging<br>with, giving advice and exchanging|
||||produce with the young people.|
