Allstar Impact:
Our Work Makes a Difference
At Allstar, we believe that small changes can lead to something much bigger. It starts with people — helping children, young people and adults discover their talents, build confidence, develop new skills and see new possibilities for their future.
As people grow, so does their ability to make a difference to those around them. We bring people together, helping to build friendships, strengthen communities and create opportunities for people to shape positive change together.
By working alongside schools, community groups and organisations, we bring together ideas, experiences and expertise to reach more people, open new doors and create opportunities that might not otherwise exist.
And the ripple effect doesn't stop there. We work with health and education systems to make sure young people's voices are heard, their experiences influence decisions and their ideas help shape better services and lasting change for future generations.
Healthy Minds Apprenticeships
The Healthy Minds Apprenticeship programme has created opportunities for young people to develop skills, gain valuable experience and build careers in the mental health and wellbeing sector. Over six years, our apprentices have worked with more than 43,000 children and young people across the region, helping to promote positive mental health and wellbeing.
Through over 45 placements and partnerships with more than 123 organisations, the programme has strengthened connections between young people and local services. Of the 39 apprentices, 23 were offered employment in the sector, demonstrating how the programme is helping to develop the next generation of mental health practitioners while making a lasting difference to communities.
R-BFD
Music Production workshops and courses give the students all the skills needed to produce and make their own songs and understand the process of how music is made. The sessions can be taught at a basic or very advanced level depending on the ability and knowledge of the students. Vocal recording and sound manipulation are also taught during these sessions.
Healthy Urban Places
Working in partnership with Born in Bradford, our two-year Healthy Urban Places research project puts local people at the heart of creating healthier communities. Co-designed with residents, the project supports local people to become community researchers, helping to shape and deliver research that reflects the needs of their neighbourhoods. So far, we have worked with 60 residents to explore access to primary healthcare and the important role community centres can play in supporting people's health and wellbeing.
The project aims to use local experiences and voices to influence how healthier places and services are developed.
Pathways to Employment
Our Employment Support programmes help people build confidence, develop new skills and take positive steps towards the world of work. We understand that finding employment isn't always easy, especially for those who have faced barriers or spent time away from the workplace. Through friendly, personalised one-to-one coaching, we offer practical guidance, encouragement and support to help people recognise their strengths, explore opportunities and plan their next steps.
Our most recent programme saw 80% of participants progress into employment, further education, training or volunteering, helping people open new doors and build brighter futures.
Move and Find Your Thing
Our Move and Find Your Thing programme helps children and young people get active, try new experiences and discover activities they enjoy. Through fun, creative and physical sessions, we encourage young people to explore their interests, make connections and find something that feels right for them.
Feedback from 25 young people shows the difference these opportunities make, with 80% rating the sessions five out of five, 84% reporting lots of new experiences and 100% saying they would recommend the programme to others. Described by young people as “fun”, “exciting” and “amazing”, the programme is helping make physical activity something to look forward to.
