Testimonials

Mother of participant
URBOND Youth Club is absolutely brilliant, nothing like any other youth club around Portsmouth. It is supervised so well and I trust the staff implicitly with my kids which I struggle to. I do not worry at all when they are at URBOND as I know they are 100% safe and supervised. We are extremely lucky to have URBOND.

I was welcomed into the Youth Development Programme via basketball sessions, which was used to provide me with one to one, improved my CV and helped me obtain employment. I honestly believe that URBOND is the perfect organisation to solve most issues with the youth because their activities are accessible and relatable. I can’t thank this amazing organisation for helping me change my life around

URBOND Community Engagement Activities have helped me build confidence in myself, [I have] met great friends, I am discovering different cultures and most importantly URBOND has given me purpose.

URBOND has always provided me a community where I can come and have a laugh, it kept me out of trouble and showed me how fun a whole new sport can be. Everyone is very welcoming and supportive
