Youth agency partnerships
Even better together
We work closely with youth agencies across the UK so that together we can help young people from all walks of life to benefit from a Raleigh expedition. Working with us as partners, our programme can form part of your overall approach to engaging disadvantaged young people and give them the opportunity to get out there and be all they can be.
How does it work?
Our partners are able to provide the expert local support that young people committed to taking part in the overall programme will need both before and after expedition. Here at Raleigh we are able to provide the expert support and preparation for young people to not only safely take part in the programme but to make the very most from their experience. Our success is based on a programme model, which varies in length from 6 to 12 months. Read more about how young people benefit from our expeditions.
