Lively, fun, ' sick' ... these are some of the words our members use to describe Inspire.

Working with young people age 7-18 we transform lives, helping them be the best they can be.

Opening in 2018, we're 8 years old. In those 8 years, we haven 't stopped learning and we haven 't stopped developing. From a global pandemic to the cost of living crisis, we are there for young people when they need us and adapt to their ever-changing needs.

At our most basic, we provide somewhere to go, something to do and someone to talk to.

Our ' see it to believe it' facilities give young people access to a range of activities, opens doors to a world of opportunities and provides the perfect space to develop new relationships with both peers and positive role models.

Through our doors you 'll find; a 3G pitch, gym, health and wellbeing room, teaching kitchen, dance studio, music room and much more.

Inspire isn’t just be a place to go, it' s a place to grow. And that's as much about young people as it our staff team.

There ' s so many perks to joining our staff team!
