UAchieve21 is a Manchester based community organisation for Manchester residents
(Children, Young People and Adults).
UAchieve21 comprises various subgroups:
From a small community initiative to a city-wide movement
Started as a pilot project in Moss Side, UAchieve21 has grown into a comprehensive community interest organization serving multiple wards across Manchester.
To empower communities through sustainable fashion education, reduce textile waste, and create meaningful social connections while supporting Manchester's Net-Zero 2038 target.
To see children and young people thrive in a 21st century world and achieve their full potential.
To see residents become more environmentally conscious, reduce their textile waste, learn new skills, socialise, and improve their general wellbeing.
Discover how we're making a difference through our two main initiatives
Transforming textile waste into community wealth
Our Sustainable Stitching program began as a pilot project in Moss Side (Moss Side Social Stitching Group) and has since expanded across Manchester. What started as a small community initiative has grown into a city-wide movement promoting sustainable fashion and reducing textile waste.
Expanding to 10 new locations by 2025, establishing a community textile recycling center, and launching a sustainable fashion brand created by our participants.
Empowering the next generation for a brighter future
UAchieve21 Children and Young People Programme started in 2021 by empowering BME children and young people exclusively. Due to overwhelming popular demand and community need, we opened our doors to all children, creating an inclusive environment for everyone to thrive.
To see children and young people thrive in a 21st century world and achieve their full potential.
To improve and promote the physical, mental, social and economical wellbeing and life chances of BME children (including others) and their parents; through education, creating awareness and a wide range of activities.
We believe in making a genuinely positive difference and empowering young people to gain the confidence to refuse past and present narratives that tend to prevent social, educational, and economic achievements.
