Discovery Trust is delighted to be supporting Elevate Life, a not-for-profit initiative of Elevate Eleven. 

Elevate Life supports young people in both primary and secondary education who are suffering from severe anxiety and a range of other mental health issues that cause difficulties with schooling and interaction with their peers.  

Elevate Life’s specialist youth clubs (currently delivered with the support of local church organisations) provide a safe space for these young people to meet and have fun with others, and gives them specific structured support through mentoring programmes, anti-anxiety techniques, and additional therapeutic modules such as board game design, film making, cooking, sports, etc.  

The impact of these clubs has already been considerable, with potentially suicidal teens finding new ways to cope, children who are avoiding school finding a new route back into day to day education and families who have been at breaking point gaining hope for the future.
