Love4Life

Love4Life was set up in 2008 in response to a growing concern for the well-being and safety of girls from an estate in Loughborough. Since then, Love4Life has grown to work across multiple areas of deprivation across Leicestershire, Leicester and Derby: supporting hundreds of young people aged 11-18 years every year. We specialise in supporting vulnerable girls to develop their self-esteem and form positive and empowering relationships by delivering Love4Life groups, one-to-ones and workshops in secondary schools and in the community. All of our work embeds positive self-worth, body image and the handling of emotions in order to help a young person become more resilient. We aim to support and develop young people's understanding of themselves and empower them to break cycles of low achievement and poverty by tackling the underlying issues. Our belief is that once young people feel good about themselves they will make positive choices in their health, relationships and education.
