Place based Prince Albert Individual Report

The Youth Sport Trust (YST) is committed to equipping educators and empowering young people across the country and recognises that there is a need to have a heightened understanding in locations that serve young people who need access to play and sport the most.

A Place Based Approach is human-centred, community driven, dynamic and context specific. It is not one dimensional, top down, static or project focussed. YST Places will be visionary and transformative, diversify their working principles and will provide the organic growth needed to create system change and lasting self-improvement within education.

YST will use the principles of ‘Place Making’ and ‘Asset Based Community Development’ to test new and innovative approaches to tackle stubborn and systemic inequalities, create positive experiences for young people, and create lasting, system change at a local level.
