M10: Every Young Person Deserves Opportunity

Celebrating 10 Years Of Mentivity.

Raising £50,000 To Build The Next 10.

Ten years ago, Mentivity started with one simple belief...

Every young person deserves someone in their corner.

Not because they need saving, but because every young person deserves the opportunity to be seen, heard and believed in.

Over the last decade, that belief has grown into one of South London's most trusted youth organisations. Together with young people, families, schools, businesses and community partners, we've helped thousands of young people build confidence, develop skills and access opportunities that can change the course of their lives.

Now we're inviting you to help build what comes next.

On Friday 31 July 2026, we'll celebrate our 10-year anniversary through M10: a landmark mixed-gender football tournament for young people aged 14–17.

But M10 is about much more than football.

It's about celebrating young people.

It's about bringing communities together.

It's about changing the narrative.

It's about creating opportunity.

And it's about raising £50,000 so we can continue investing in the next generation.

Whether you donate, share this page or fundraise alongside us, you're helping write the next chapter of the Mentivity story.

WHY OPPORTUNITY MATTERS

Every day we meet young people with incredible talent, ambition and potential.

Too often, what they lack isn't ability. It's access.

Access to trusted adults.

Access to safe spaces.

Access to opportunities.

For the last ten years, Mentivity has shown what's possible when communities invest in young people before they reach crisis point.

Confidence grows. Dreams become plans. Communities become stronger. That's why this campaign matters.

MORE THAN A FOOTBALL TOURNAMENT

M10 brings together everything Mentivity stands for.

• A unique mixed-gender football tournament for young people aged 14–17.

• Live DJs, music and entertainment.

• Youth-led storytelling through our ContentMENT programme.

• Businesses, schools and communities coming together around a shared purpose.

• A celebration of youth, culture and community.

Following our successful pilot with Channel 4, young people from ContentMENT will interview participants, create social media content and tell the story of M10 through their own lens.

Because the best people to tell the story of young people are young people themselves.

POWERED BY COMMUNITY

We're proud to already have the support of:

• KISS XTRA

• Forbes Family Group

• The Gym Kitchen

• HSBC Volunteers

• Dreamfruit

• Sky Up

Together, we're showing what's possible when businesses, communities and young people work together.
