God's love through sport

Sport is helping to transform young lives through the work of a charity which is “proud of its Christian identity”.

KICK has grown from having a skeleton staff to a large organisation of 90 people promoting values-driven physical education, dance, mentoring and a chaplaincy in schools and community KICK Academies. The staff strive to impact a sense of hopelessness that many young people feel. 

CEO Joe Lowther explained: “KICK’s mission is to transform young people’s lives with God’s love, through sport.

“[We] go into schools to deliver professional services of PE National Curriculum, transformational street dance, solutions-focused mentoring and schools-based chaplaincy.

“We then look to equip local volunteers from local churches to reach local young people through coaching in sport or dance at the weekend called KICK Academies."
