What we do

Inner Flame delivers training to unleash the potential in young people, helping them to become the person they aspire to being, and to achieve what they want in life.
Fire Me Up!, our flagship programme, is a residential course for people aged 14-19. Participants experience a unique opportunity for personal growth and development through:
  • Challenging activities, working with skilled instructors at established centres,
  • Team working,
  • 1:1 coaching,
  • Practising new skills
  • Meeting inspirational speakers who have overcome difficulties and achieved success.

 

Our approach

Fire Me Up! is for people aged 14 to 19, regardless of background or physical ability. The only qualifications required are:
  • being willing to challenge yourself,
  • being willing to support others in a group, and
  • wanting to improve at least one thing about yourself or your life.
Just as our trainers and tutors bring a wide range of backgrounds, education and experience, so do our course participants, who learn more about themselves by seeing life from different perspectives.
 
This course is designed to develop skills at an important time, when young people are moving towards adulthood and becoming their own decision-makers.
 
Our trainers and coaches help participants to see their options, to make positive choices, and to act upon these. We challenge them to set personal goals and commit to them.  
 

Our motivation

Despite the negative image often presented by the media, the fact is that young people represent our future. “Fire Me Up!” is for young people with potential – and we start from the assumption that everyone has high potential. They need positive influences and this is where Fire Me Up! comes in, encouraging them to develop:
 
  • self-understanding – their motivations and fears, and what they want from life
  • belief in their ability, potential and capacity to overcome problems.

Results and outcomes

Fire me Up! is about helping young people to identify and achieve their own aims. We don’t impose our goals; they define what success means for them. Their likely outcomes include:
 
  • being clearer about their direction in life
  • feeling confident in their ability to tackle the challenges they will face
  • increasing focus on learning or career choices.

As you would expect, we take Child Protection and Safeguarging very seriously. All of our trustees and staff, and all volunteers who have access to confidential data or unsupervised contact with young people have an enhanced CRB check. A copy of our Safeguarding Policy can be found here, and we are happy to answer any questions you may have.

What else do we do?

Inner Flame offers a range of events and short workshops to develop young people. Our “Inner Flame Team Challenge” has proved particularly popular, with 10 events booked within the first 2 months since its launch. Activity-based, it develops communication and team working skills, and is available for any group of 12-24 young people aged 13-19.
