Spear, formerly known as Resurgo, is a youth employment charity. For more than two decades, we’ve been running the Spear Programme – a proven, community-based coaching programme that helps young people break down barriers and thrive in work and life.
The Spear Programme supports young people aged 16-24 who aren’t in work or education. It’s free and available at our centres across the UK. We particularly support young people who face barriers to work, such as having mental health challenges or few qualifications.
Spear works: over 70% of Spear trainees are in work or study a year later.
In fact, Spear has been independently rated as one of the UK’s most impactful youth employment programmes.
