teamArchie’s New Partnership
teamArchie are delighted to announce that we will be supporting five young people to do their Instructor Programme with our partner charity, Snow Camp. We look forward to sharing further details of their progress in 2020.
A note from Snow Camp-
We believe that there is huge potential in using the power and appeal of snow sports, as well as the mountain environment, to challenge and support the young people we work with. Everything we do is rooted in the challenges of young people who are living in the most deprived areas of the UK. This includes young people who are not in education, employment or training, those who have been affected by knife and gang crime, have behavioural and emotional needs or have faced social inequality.
Each year our young people work with us to develop and deliver a training programme that provides them with life changing opportunities to learn a new sport, work towards qualifications and find careers in the snowsports industry and beyond. It’s a unique form of training, since the training provided can only be received by those who share similar experiences. It’s a model that works and one that we have worked tirelessly to promote over the last 15 years.
This year, we have worked with over 800 young people nationally on our summer First Tracks Programme. Over 200 young people then moved on to our Graduate Programme in October and we are pleased to let you know that over 80 young people are now moving on to our instructor programme, Excel, in February including Sara, Danny, Ashleigh, Tyrese and Christian.
