Transformative Journey: Unleashing Potential with Niyyah Community Enterprise

Introduction

In the dynamic landscape of youth work and community development, organisations like our own, Niyyah Community Enterprise CIC stand out as an organisation of empowering transformation. Through our delivery of programmes and unwavering dedication, Niyyah has been instrumental in shaping the journey's of young people, and among them, the remarkable Tiger!

Initial Encounter

Tiger's narrative begins as a tale of undiscovered potential. When he first crossed paths with Felicha, Tiger was a shy, reserved young person with limited exposure to experiences beyond his daily routine. Yet, within the nurturing environment of Niyyah's initiatives, Tiger found the space to explore, grow, and ultimately thrive.

Embarking on a Journey

Tiger's journey with Niyyah commenced with the NatWest Thrive programme, a unique endeavour aimed at empowering youth to envision and realise their aspirations. Through immersive sessions and collaborative work, Tiger and a cohort of peers embarked on a journey of growth, discovery and skill development.

Notably, Tiger's involvement extended beyond mere participation; he emerged as a light of inspiration, actively contributing to the evolution of the programme through his insights and dedication.

Empowerment Through Leadership

A pivotal moment in Tiger's participation came with his selection for the National Youth Agency's Youth Leadership Group (YLG). Here, amidst supportive guidance from NYA youth workers and Niyyah's mentorship, Tiger flourished as a leader. His journey exemplified the essence of youth empowerment, as he not only honed his own skills but also extended a helping hand to fellow participants, guiding them along their Thrive journey.

Beyond Boundaries

What sets Tiger's narrative apart is the breadth of experiences he embraced through NYA's network. From participating in youth organisation audits to rubbing shoulders with royalty at Marcus Rashford's old youth club in Manchester, Tiger's journey was nothing short of extraordinary. His inclusion in high-profile events and collaborations, such as NatWest careers days and TikTok campaigns, underscored his remarkable growth and resilience.

Triumph

Tiger's journey with Niyyah culminated in a moment of triumph and validation. From his humble beginnings, he blossomed into a confident, proactive individual, embodying the true meaning of Thrive.

His crowning achievement; an apprenticeship with NatWest as a mortgage advisor that stands testament to the transformative power of the collaborated efforts of National Youth Agency , and NatWest. With a newfound sense of purpose and optimism, Tiger is poised to embark on a fulfilling career path, armed with the skills and confidence instilled by Niyyah's unwavering support.
