Description

EMPOWER is a youth charity which sees the creation and delivery of Youth Zones in the local areas.

EMPOWER is currently overseeing the operations of HideOut Youth Zone (based in Manchester and opened in 2019) and the development of a new Salford Youth Zone (which is set to open in early 2025).

The two Youth Zone's are part of the OnSide network - a growing network of 15 Youth Zone's across the UK.

Youth Zones are purpose-built spaces, set up to give young people (aged - 19, and up to 25 with additional needs) the opportunity to discover their passion and their purpose by providing opportunities, support and pathways.

EMPOWER gives young people from a diverse range of backgrounds access to incredible facilities in a vibrant space packed with engaging activities, the opportunity to make friends, develop new skills, unlock their potential and have fun.

Their state-of-the-art buildings provide young people with somewhere safe to go, something positive to do and someone trusted to talk to.

Facilities include a 3G pitch, climbing wall, fully equipped gym, training kitchen, music studio, salon and mixed martial arts room.

This is passionate, properly funded youth provision. A unique partnership between young people, their community, local authorities, private business leadership and a growing movement of supporters.

EMPOWER believes that all young people need is a chance to discover what they've got and where it could take them.

They are changing the narrative - one that celebrates the strength of young people and our communities.

This is an exciting time to join the team as they continue to build HideOut's reputation locally, regionally and nationally, whilst also supporting the creation and development of the new Salford Youth Zone brand (which is currently being developed by a young person's development group and international marketing agency based in Manchester city-centre).

By joining the team here at EMPOWER, you will have the opportunity to work on both projects.
