Dear John,

The global pandemic has impacted young people’s mental health, educational attainment and future prospects. The need for local, accessible and interactive learning opportunities is more urgent than ever.

Will you support Empower to Plan’s new collaboration, EPIC You Before Two, in reaching 100 disadvantaged youth in Scotland?

DONATE

With the generous contribution of Empower to Plan donors over the past two years, You Before Two has gone from strength to strength. Now, we invite you to join us in extending the organisation’s reach into Scotland. With the collaboration of Scottish youth and community development charity, EPIC, your donations will help spearhead new sexual consent and reproductive rights workshops for vulnerable young people in Wester Hailes near Edinburgh and Shettleston in Glasgow’s East End.

With your support, You Before Two’s bespoke Population and Planet workshop will be incorporated into this new collaborative pilot with EPIC, giving 100 young people in six school and youth group sessions a unique opportunity to discuss issues related to population pressure, environmental impact and family size. The workshops will also empower young people to make positive choices - to protect their own sexual and mental health before entering into a serious relationship or having a baby.

This exciting new collaboration can only be made possible with the support of people like you, through Empower to Plan. Please join us in making a direct, positive impact on young peoples' lives in some of Scotland’s most under-resourced and vulnerable communities.

“All children are entitled to the same level of education on sex and relationships. Our aim is to light fires and make healthy inquisitiveness instinctual in developing youngsters, whilst also making them aware of risks and where to go for help. Never has it been more important to emphasise this message and broaden minds and hearts to the wider world we live in."

- Dr Rebecca Foljambe, You Before Two Founder
