Local business SR2 (Socially Responsible Recruitment), chose Young Bristol to be one of two of SR2’s Charity of the Years during 2020-22. At SR2 it is important “to not just write a cheque”, but to be as involved as possible in the charity; and Young Bristol provides multiple opportunities to do so, which results in “ a definite increase in staff engagement”, says Chris, owner of SR2.

During 2020-22, SR2 donated over £49,318.91 to Young Bristol, as well as the company’s staff team volunteering at numerous Community Youth Clubs across the city, taking part in fundraising events to raise much needed donations, donating vital IT equipment, and even delivering employability workshops to young people who are not in education or employment.

Young Bristol welcomed SR2 to the charity’s BS14 Youth Club during 2022 to unveil the ‘SR2 Media Suite’. The media suite which has been named after the local business to recognise their incredible support, will inspire young people through the use of media activities, supporting them with CV writing, homework guidance and accessing future employment opportunities, as well as helping the young people who access the Youth Club to explore the tech industry as a career option; something that is important to SR2 and their beliefs. The media suite which is fully equipped with work stations, computers, a projector and podcasting equipment, will also look to host music activities and workshops.

SR2’s partnership with Young Bristol continues to have a positive impact,

Our partnership with Young Bristol feels like a good fit for us and even in the current climate, is a partnership that can grow.”

Thank you SR2!

Young Bristol’s partnership with BrisDoc Healthcare Services began in December 2019, following Young Bristol’s work with young people being put forward by staff at their Community Fund meeting as an organisation to support during 2020/21.

Kelly Shore at BrisDoc Healhtcare Services said,

Young Bristol do an amazing job offering support and training to disadvantaged young people within the local area, these core values are why BrisDoc picked Young Bristol as one of their charities to support locally.”

During the pandemic, BrisDoc donated over £10,470 to fund the cost of running Young Bristol’s Kayak Club, as well as to support vital improvements at two of our Community Youth Clubs. During lockdown our teams maintained a strong relationship working together on a joint project ‘Lockdown Through a Young Person’s Eyes’. The project saw young people from our Creative Programmes produce artwork to capture their experiences of lockdown. BrisDoc also supplied 100 selection boxes over the Christmas period of 2020.

BrisDoc during 2021 have volunteered their time at our community venues, with 13 staff taking part in a Voluntary Day which saw them make improvements to the appearance of Ashton Vale Club for Young People, in preparation for the Youth Clubs reopening post- lockdown.

The Voluntary Day was a first for BrisDoc, it was enjoyed by all involved, and we are looking forward to setting up the next one in 2022.”

During 2018, the Bristol Property Association chose Young Bristol to be its Charity of the Year. The Association’s fundraising efforts included a South West Sportive, Cocktail Party and for the first time a Rowing Regatta culminating in the Association’s Annual Dinner. Not only did this raise an incredible amount of money for our charity, but it also introduced our charity and the work we do to a whole new audience. In return, we continually raised the profile of the Association to our supporters through our social media platforms and quarterly eNewsletter.

“For me as President of the Bristol Property Agents Association in 2018, there was only one option when it came to choosing a charity to support, as I knew every last penny would be treasured and put to numerous great causes.” Mark Leese, Director at Leese and Nagle
