the Rise Above Charitable Trust
About
The Rise Above Trust The Trust is established to work with those outside the mainstream system in developing healthy lifestyle choices in a holistic sense, in particular, the young and those who may struggle with insecure housing, who are involved with the justice system, struggle with violence and anger issues, mental health issues, and drug and alcohol dependency.
The Trust facilitates work focused on providing practical well-being skills, such as martial arts training and peer-to-peer mentoring to those engaged with us. We offer mentoring, and education opportunities as well.
At the Rise Above Charitable Trust, we are driven by a clear mission: to empower individuals who have been marginalised by the mainstream system.

As well as providing hands-on training sessions, outside of the gym, we are also able to provide education and expertise on topics such as mental health and concepts of masculinity, domestic and sexual violence prevention and alcohol and drug issues.
We can do this by providing keynote presentations, lectures and small workshops. Our presenters come with a wealth of evidence-based knowledge while also bringing their own lived experiences of many of the issues faced by our participants.
