About Us
Greenhouse Sports is a youth charity using sport to support social change. Sport is our hook to engage young people and one of the vehicles through which we support youth development.

These programmes are delivered by our trusted, high-quality coach-mentors who deliver year-round to ensure that young people have ongoing access to sport, mentoring, enrichment, and employability activities. The result of this work is that every year, Greenhouse Sports supports over 8,000 young people to attend school more often, improve their wellbeing, and raise their aspirations, transforming life chances in the communities that need us the most.
