About Sport 4 Life UK
Sport 4 Life UK is the leading sport for employment charity in the West Midlands.
Our transformative programmes are designed to empower young people by providing them with high-quality mentoring, employability guidance and sports sessions.
Our vision is to create a level playing field where every young person has the opportunity to create a better future for themselves.
Our story
Founded in 2006 as a small community project in the ward of Ladywood, Sport 4 Life started life as a ‘sport for sport’s sake’ charity, driving disadvantaged young people into sports participation, with the focus exclusively on outputs.
Following a fundamental strategic review in 2010, the organisation changed its use of sport, where it became the vehicle, conduit and tool to facilitate social good – focussing on meaningful and sustainable impact.
The resulting 19 years has seen Sport 4 Life learn, grow, change and develop into the leading sport-for-employment charity in the West Midlands.
