As part of the Mintridge family, we would love for you to support us in any way you can. Whether that is through sharing our stories, signing up to take part in events or raising funds and awareness for the charity for many years to come.

Two really easy ways to support the Foundation, are to take a look at our Support Us page and see how you might be able to help or be involved or to join Easyfundraising and raise free funds for the Foundation when you do your online shopping.

As a Mentee, you can raise your own free funds through Easyfundraising that can go towards your training kit, school equipment or anything you need during your journey. Take a look at the information below to learn more about setting up your own cause.

The Mintridge Foundation is a registered charity dedicated to enhancing life skills in young people through sport. We provide a support network for young people by harnessing the power of positive sporting role models. The Mintridge Foundation assists young people of all ages, abilities and physical capabilities to develop confidence and resilience, and creates awareness of the importance of mental and physical wellbeing through sport.

Our team of Ambassadors - Olympians, Paralympians and other professional sports stars from over 20 sports, both team and individual - work with young people in schools, clubs and academies across the UK. Starting with visits including assemblies, coaching clinics and classroom sessions tailored to each organisation’s requirements, our ambassadors can then provide one- on- one remote mentoring in a safeguarded environment, delivered via technology such as Fitswarm and Playwaze to build a lasting legacy for individuals.

The Mintridge Foundation’s successes demonstrate the incredible power of sport; from a mentee’s selection to represent Great Britain in their chosen field to enabling disabled children to find confidence and happiness just through participation. Understanding life after sport, we also support our Ambassadors in their transition from active sport to the next stage of their careers.
