We believe that every young teenage girl should believe that she is valuable, has skills and talents to offer, understands her ability to make good choices and discovers the unique beauty in herself and others regardless of society's preconceptions. The Shine Project provides a friendly, non judgemental, safe environment where overlooked teenage girls are able to connect with others, be active, keep learning and engage in mindful activities enabling the development of healthy physical and mental wellbeing. Every teenage girl deserves to recognise her value and potential. Therefore our sessions equip each individual to look after herself both inside and out through discussion, demonstration and participative workshops
Why the community needs us
Our early intervention course provides activities that help young girls build resilience and manage their own physical and mental health - therefore reducing the need for them to access public services via the NHS
Our impact on the community
Evidence collected over 12 years shows that the attendees: understand the value of themselves and others, improve their knowledge & implement healthy eating habits around food & exercise, recognise their skills, talents and unique beauty, build new friendships and reduce loneliness, improve communication skills and relationship management, increase emotional resilience and management of strong emotions, believe in their own decision making and identify aspirations and increase their confidence.
