what we do
We design a range of services and projects for some of the most excluded young people in society. VIEW SERVICESServing Young People and Their Families For More Than Two Decades
The main aim of ACAP is to raise the achievement, attainment & aspirations of all young people. To this end we run a variety of projects and services. We take a coordinated approach in supporting children to help them to fulfil their fullest potential in school. Our project serves as a catalyst for bringing together communities, as well as statutory and voluntary bodies including Bradford Education, Bradford Youth Service and a variety of other community projects and agencies.
All our services offer a flexible way of learning to meet the specific and tailor-made needs of young people. The majority of our young people are succeeding in school through our mentoring and out of school programmes however a significant amount of our time is spent working with young people who are either excluded or on the verge of exclusion from school. Working in partnership with schools and parents our aim is to get all excluded young people back into mainstream education as quickly as possible. Our current services and programmes include:
- Mentoring Service
- Youth Advocacy Service
- Parents Forum
- Holiday Scheme Activities
- Womens Project
- Arts and Crafts Therapy
- Social Support
- Volunteering Programme

Our Philosophy Is To Provide Quality Over Quantity
It’s not about how many young people we can ram in and get through our doors each year, it is about what IMPACT we have on the young people who engage with our services. We choose quality over quantity any day of the week and will only work on life enriching projects that have been chosen by our service users themselves.
Providing the Tools Young People Need To Succeed In The Future
We focus on giving young people the skills they need to excel in education. We help them to develop confidence and achieve their very best in every aspect of their lives.
Your support will help us to purchase essential educational resources and equipment we need to change children’s lives. Please tweet, share, or donate to help us in our mission to raise the educational attainment of children and improve the work that we do with parents.
