BSU - Borough School United
Schools United exists to increase youth in further studies & employment, to reduce youth violence and gangs, to reduce youth xenophobia, to increase fun and participation.
Schools United creates and delivers borough-wide programmes and delivers them in schools and not local youth and community centres. We deliver in this manner as most youth and community centres are on estates or what is deemed postcode protect spots by young people. This increases territorial and gangland mindsets and reduces other young people from other areas or from within the area from attending due to risk and fear. By delivering in school we reduce the fear for parent and young people in form of travel and attending as they are familiar of the venue and shared facilities.

CYC projects are delivered:
In a world where the landscape of employment is ever-changing, and the demand for skilled professionals is skyrocketing, our youth face a critical challenge.
The root of this problem?
A significant disconnect between the education provided by academic institutions and the skills demanded by the industry.
Our students, from primary to university levels, are often subjected to outdated curricula that fail to equip them with the necessary skills required in the modern professional world. The focus remains predominantly on passing exams, with little emphasis on practical skills, critical thinking, or creativity. This approach leaves our youth unprepared for the realities of employment and entrepreneurship.

At Revo Seccus, we act as enablers and facilitators, working in partnership with youth-focused organisations to deliver capacity-building activities, high-impact workshops, and creative youth engagement programmes — all designed with measurable outcomes.
Since 1994, we’ve successfully delivered youth development projects across London. Over time, we’ve witnessed the limitations of traditional public funding models — which often lead to financial instability and time poverty for community organisations like yours.
To solve this, we’ve built a sustainable model that leverages partnerships with corporate and commercial entities looking to make a positive and measurable impact on young people’s lives through their CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) initiatives.
We’re inviting you to join our YOU Membership Forum — a collective of like-minded organisations that want to:
We believe your organisation would bring tremendous value to this forum — and benefit equally from the access, influence, and infrastructure we’ve built to support the sector.
Our goal is not just to educate but to empower. Through our workshops, students will gain the confidence, skills, and knowledge they need to navigate the challenges of employment and entrepreneurship.

Developing social and emotional maturity/ intelligence is a major issue amongst young people (especially since 2020 and the covid lockdown). Tasks for young people trying to navigate life has become difficult as tech has also increased social isolation. Mentors and delivering workshops to peers is great and can help them get rid of social awkwardness, improve their emotional intelligence and confidence and helps them understand their responsibilities and accountability regarding education and information.
Mentees are not the only ones benefitting from the mentorship program, as it holds many advantages for mentors.
• • Reignite fondness for business and industry
The nature of a young mind requires regular care and attention; hence, regular communication and prolonging the mentoring period as long as necessary is essential.
Similar backgrounds or personalities between mentor and mentee can remove many unnecessary obstacles and allow a faster connection.
