Welcome to City Year UK
City Year UK is founded on the belief that young people can change the world. As "near peer" role models and tutors, our volunteers support pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds to enjoy and succeed at school. But that's not all Over the course of their City Year, they also have the opportunity to develop as leaders, with the passion, values,experience and skills to go on to lead change in their communities long after their year of service.
Our Goal
Our mission is to inspire the role models to help children in need succeed in school:
•We give our volunteers the training and personal development they need to become powerful and effective leaders.
•We show the power of individual action to drive collective impact.
Our Values
PROGRESSION: we are devoted to the personal and professional development of all
ACTION: we don't just talk, we do. We are always ready.
EXCELLENCE: we struggle for nothing less, no matter where we start.
Our Future Plans
We believe that the cumulative(渐增的) effect of the work of many devoted people and organizations can have a great impact. We are committed to increasing opportunities for young people to“act”and to create more hope.
Our ambition is that, by 2020,10 years after launching in the UK, we will have at least 500 young people a year serving around 40, 000 children across five cities.
