Propel Positive Futures is an early-intervention mentoring programme supporting young people aged 10–24 across Newham and Barking & Dagenham. Funded through the GLA Propel initiative, it works with young people at the earliest stages of risk—offering the guidance, stability, and trusted relationships needed to make safer, more positive life choices.

Through weekly one-to-one mentoring tailored to each young person, mentors help build resilience, self-confidence, and practical decision-making skills. The programme supports young people to re-engage with education, improve wellbeing, strengthen communication, and access positive opportunities—reducing isolation and helping them move away from harmful pathways towards brighter futures.
