SAINTS FOUNDATION COMMUNITY HUBS

What are the Community Hubs?
Saints Foundation have planned to have two ‘Community Hubs’ within Southampton which will serve as a safe and controlled venue for the
activities. The two hubs will be based at Oasis Academy Lord’s Hill and Bitterne Park Secondary School. Both schools were selected due to the
facilities and a location on both the East & West of the city.

There is two types of provision we are looking to use the venue for:

-   Helping us to continue our existing project delivery to support the city.
-   To run bespoke programmes to support the current city need.

All sessions will have a strict sign up process prior to the session to ensure we have correct numbers and information relevant for our risk
assessments and ensuring safety of all across the site.

The following sessions are relevant for schools and also provide opportunities to refer your pupils too…

                                                                                                                                                2
NCS

What is it…
Saints Foundation and NCS have teamed up to deliver the ‘Keep Doing Good’ programme this summer for young people in Southampton. ‘Keep Doing Good’ is an
amazing opportunity for Year 11 pupils to support Southampton and help tackle community’s issues that already existed or have emerged due to COVID-19. Through
‘Keep Doing Good’, pupils will be given the platform to volunteer a minimum of 16 hours of their time with Saints Foundation and collectively make a positive impact in
Southampton.

The programme will split over the course of 2 weeks, and will provide young people with the chance to develop new skills, experiences of planning and delivering a
social action project, as well as tackling issues that your pupils are passionate about.

Excluding the following schools due to NCS contracting – Redbridge, St.Annes, Polygon but offer will be in place from Personal Best Education.

What is it…
Saints Kicks is a programme which looks to engage young people aged 8-18 in positive activity with the aim of reducing anti-social behaviour in

FAMILY COMMUNITY HUB

What is it…
This is a new project that has been developed to manage a local need within the city. This project will allow for two nights per week for the
venue to accommodate 20 families (10 families per wave) who have been affected the most by COVID-19. The session will include an inclusive
sporting session for all of those in the family who are under 16 whilst parents/guardians can access support services for families with a number
of agencies present. For the second part of the session each family will have the opportunity to join us for a hot meal free of charge and a
chance to interact with our team in a family challenge. The aim of the programme is to reach out to these families and bring the support and
services to them but to help ease any potentially anxieties of returning to schools for September. We would look to work with all schools across
the city to identify the 80 families who may like to engage across the city.
