CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE ARE AT THE HEART OF HOPE UK’S MISSION.

For nearly 170 years, (previously as The Band of Hope), we have equipped young people to make drug*-free choices, working with groups and individuals in formal and informal settings helping them develop the knowledge and skills they need to live healthy lives. Our trained volunteers and staff, who work with children and young people in schools and youth groups, provide interactive, age-appropriate, educational sessions about drugs. Life skills that build confidence, enhance peer resistance and develop helpful, transferable skills are woven into sessions designed to encourage healthy choices and enable children and young people to realise their potential.
