Give Online. Double Your Donation
The easiest way to give to Motiv8, is online
This December, as part of our Big Give Christmas Challenge, your generosity can go twice as far. We’ve teamed up with the William Wates Memorial Trust, Sir James Scott, the Sir Jeremiah Colman Gift Trust and The Hampshire Cricket Foundation who have agreed to match every donation for the next week up to £27,000.
This will be vital in helping provide the strong foundation on which young people can grow, flexibility that ensure each person is supported as their unique story requires, and ensure we can offer the fun that our communities want to be part off!

Feedback From Families
‘Since attending Monday hub Z has positively dealt with anger and has been able to take steps to remain calm in difficult situation, K has been able to complete tasks independently and voice her opinion more easily’

‘E seems happier on a Monday when she has hub, she is more talkative, and it is nice to see her away from her screen’
‘My three boys really enjoy coming every Monday and taking part in the different activities and making friends’
‘It is nice to know there is somewhere for my child to go where it is safe for them to socialise with friends’
‘I’ve noticed change & it’s amazing to see thank you for all your hard work so far’
Feedback From Young People
‘I enjoyed the sessions with my Support Worker, they have really helped me see things from a different perspective’
‘I loved going to the employability event, it was an eye opener to learn about all the things I never thought of when writing my CV’
‘Motiv8 staff are always very friendly, and hub enabled me to try out new songs in the music room. I was able to talk to someone if I needed it. Whenever Motiv8 workers bought in food for people they were always considerate of my allergies which made me feel included.’
‘I love Motiv8, sometimes it’s the only thing that keeps me going’.
‘I wish my sessions went on forever, I really benefit from the support’
Feedback From Community Partners
‘I just want to mention how much we massively appreciate all the staff and how much they put into each session; it is very apparent how much they care for the emotional wellbeing of all the children’
‘Motiv8’s core is connection and kindness. This is what makes a community like theirs so unique and full of heart.’
‘I think Motiv8’s service is invaluable to young people as they listen to the young persons needs and mould and guide them. Listening to schools involved in their mentoring programme, I have been told that many young people would not be here if they had not had them to talk to. This really saddens me to hear children talk this way, but am glad they have had somebody positive to talk to help them resolve any issues they are facing.’
‘Motvi8 are undoubtedly the ‘go to’ organisation for supporting young people and children who other support services fail to engage. Motiv8 is known for its professionalism, innovation and ability to really understand and champion the voice of the young people and children they work with.’
‘There has never been an organisation that makes partnership working so seamless. Their professionalism, diligence and empathy make them an organisation that we are proud to call a partner. Keep up the good work Motiv8 – amazing!’
