Supporting

Young people are encouraged to follow their passions. We will catch them if they fall.

Nourishing

Students and staff are cared for, given healthy, tasty, free food and their wellbeing is prioritised at all times.

Achieving

We celebrate our wins, whether personal or collective, we share our successes.

Protecting

Our top priority is the safety of the young people we serve. We fiercely protect our pupils.

Our Schools

Our original school opened its doors in Hulme, Manchester on 9th November 2022 and is at the heart of everything we do. Our longer term ambition is to expand Rekindle schools across the country, leading a demonstration of why education policy needs to change to reflect our vision, mission and values.

Sparking action

When our CEO Ruth, Co-Chair Jesse and Josie & Alieh from our Youth Team spoke at an event a few months ago, little did they realise they would inspire someone who attended to run their first ever half marathon for us. But that is exactly what is happening and here is where you can get involved.

If you too, like Cath, have been inspired by our story, then please sponsor her as she does this for us. Every penny raised goes into us being able to continue our work to spark a love of learning in working class young people, supporting them to become confident critical thinkers. We know times are tight and money is scarce, but if you have anything spare and can sponsor Cath, we’d be extremely grateful. Thank you.

If you too have been inspired by Cath, why don’t you do a sponsored event for Rekindle and become part of our village.

Word on the street

I noticed that he actually wanted to be at Rekindle, I did not need to remind him to get ready. I have seen an improvement in his self confidence, a more positive outlook. No negatives, all positives.

Parent / Guardian of Rekindle Young Person

Rekindle has been a home of welcome and affection for our family. Having a support network where my daughter enjoys the activities and at the same time is developing her cognitive abilities in a process of acquiring knowledge without giving up playfulness is a dream for us.
