Abuse and violence can happen anywhere, by anyone, to anyone. Safety must mean safety for all of us. 1/5

As one young person said: “The teachers explained things in a simple, interactive way and took us back to the basics, so in the end even the harder topics started to make sense.” 2/3

This week’s IGNITE update! Instead of rushing to solutions, young people explored root causes using 5 Whys — strengthening independent and critical thinking. Delivered during Ramadan, we paused for a Iftar so everyone could participate fully. Thanks to @Assan88 for supporting!

🔥 IGNITE x Luton Town FC 🧡 Our young people got a behind-the-scenes tour of the club and a careers session with staff across commercial, media, catering, education and more - opening their eyes to the careers and routes available to them. Big thanks to @LutonTown 🙌

Take a moment to listen to Aleesa, one of our young people on the IGNITE programme. Her words capture why IGNITE exists — building confidence, celebrating strengths and creating practical, empowering learning experiences.

This was just the beginning. IGNITE is about confidence, skills, real-world experience and showing young people that their ideas — and their futures — matter. 🔥 The spark has been lit — onwards and upwards for IGNITE and for Luton!
