The Mintridge Foundation

• The Mintridge Foundation aims to showcase to every young person how important sports can be in their lives and the positive impact it can have on them.
• Through presentations, coaching sessions, mentoring, and so forth, The Mintridge Foundation is driven to help young people from any walk of life, ability or physical capability take part in their programmes to improve their physical and mental health.
• According to the Times Health Correspondent in January 2022, under 18’s referred for NHS Mental Health treatment rose by 39% to 1.6 million. On top of that, due to an increased sedentary lifestyle amongst children, 1 in 4 primary school children leave school obese. The Mintridge Foundation aims to change this, one school at a time, through their Mintridge Ambassadors.
• In order to successfully spread their vital message, Mintridge Ambassadors take the form of Olympians, Paralympians and other sporting stars to deliver holistic sports provision in schools, clubs and colleges across the UK. Athletes such as Danielle Brown MBE and Iona Lake work to equip young people with the necessary skills needed for adulthood.

What makes The Mintridge Foundation different

The Mintridge Foundation cares about young people’s mental health. With mental health issues such as depression and anxiety on the rise, the founders recognised that holistic methods for prevention and healing are key. Founder, Alex Wallace, was driven to start the foundation due to a crisis of confidence she faced in her teenage years, leading to her questioning her identity and worth. She recognised that at that moment she needed someone, and so this foundation is not only important, but born from passion. You can trust that no matter what walk of life a young person comes from, they’ll be met with compassion, understanding and patience by the ambassadors of The Mintridge Foundation.
