Our CSR programme
Helping the talent of the future
In a time of bots, apps and algorithms, we believe it’s people that really power the world.
And people that will continue to do so.
It’s why we’re proud to support two charities dedicated to helping young people discover and reach their potential.
Helping disadvantaged young people into work
The Spear programme run by Resurgo helps young people facing barriers getting into work or education by equipping them with confidence, motivation and the vital skills they need to succeed in long-term employment. As well as giving financial support, our team provide practical help that ranges from coaching to overcome challenging attitudes and behaviours to training on writing a good CV and mock interview practice.
“75% of the young people who complete The Spear Programme are in work and are still there a year later. The programme makes an incredible difference to young people’s prospects and future.”

Helping young people discover their potential
North Yorkshire Youth (NYY) provides learning and personal development opportunities for children and young people to discover their potential. Key activities include:
- Supporting youth work in North Yorkshire communities
- Providing adventurous activities from Carlton Lodge Outdoor Centre
- Providing training opportunities for young people and those who work with them
As well as donating tools and equipment we provide practical help in maintaining Carlton Lodge, whether that be painting dormitories or building fences.
“Everyone has the power to achieve amazing things. We’re committed to helping North Yorkshire Youth provide 8 to 25-year olds the widest possible range of opportunities to discover this for themselves.”
