Made by Sport set about with the intention of painting a landscape of the scale of issues facing young people today. The picture is disheartening - issues facing young people before the pandemic have been exacerbated, and new ones have come to the forefront of their daily lives.
Made by Sport, the national UK charity, believes that sport has a unique ability to tackle the issues faced by young people today. But despite sport's proven ability to improve mental health, enhance life skills and build stronger communities, it is woefully undervalued and underfunded. With this report they hope to provide regular insights into issues facing young people and evidence about how successful sport is in tackling them. This summary of findings will be reviewed regularly and will continue to inform Made By Sport's campaigning and grant-giving.
