ABOUT US

Opportunity Hub is a youth-led organisation focusing on bridging the gap between opportunities, access to information and young people. 

We began in 2018 and have been working at spreading awareness of a range of opportunities to young people. Our focus also entails self-care, self-development and educational resources that we can share with the community. 

>> THE PROBLEMS:

  1. Lack of awareness of opportunities & resources available 

  2. Lack of focus on mental well-being, self-awareness & development

  3. Lack of sufficient teaching surrounding life-changing topics e.g finances. 

>> OUR SOLUTIONS: 

1. The Hub: a space for young people to access help from one another, resources and opportunities.

2. Workshops + Programmes: using creative ways to teach young people about creative pathways

3. Events: To embrace talent and creativity + focus on wellbeing 

4. Newsletter: share opportunities and resources
