A room full of powerful women, big ideas and exciting things in the works!

We had Bianca, Kate and Wathi in the Next Gen office, and there’s something special about bringing the right people together & working towards things that make a difference.

There’s nothing quite like women supporting women, celebrating each other’s strengths and using our knowledge and experiences to help one another grow🖤

There’s a lot happening at Politely Rebellious Next Gen CIC, and there are lots of ways to get involved🫵

Whether you’re a young person looking for support, a school wanting to work with us, a business wanting to make a difference, or someone who simply wants to give your time and experience, there’s a place for you at Next Gen CIC

Here’s what’s currently available:

FOR YOUNG PEOPLE
VOYCE: our youth-driven programme supporting 16–21 year olds with confidence, mentoring, work experience and real opportunities.

1:1 mentoring: personalised support for young people navigating change, building confidence or figuring out what comes next.

FOR SCHOOLS
Our assemblies, workshops, mentoring and role model sessions are designed to support young people with confidence, aspirations, resilience, behaviours, relationships, life skills and preparing for life beyond the classroom.

FOR BUSINESSES
From sponsorship and partnerships to mentoring, work experience and volunteering, there are lots of ways for businesses to directly support young people and create meaningful opportunities.

We’re building something that is bigger than just one programme.

It’s about creating access to opportunities, connecting young people with the right people and helping them feel more confident about what comes next.

If you’re a young person, school, business, role model or organisation and you’d like to get involved, drop us a message🖤

Two weeks ago, the brave team took on the challenge of abseiling down the iconic Spinnaker Tower in support of Politely Rebellious Next Gen CIC 🧡

From nervous smiles at the top to huge celebrations at the bottom, every single person who took part stepped outside of their comfort zone to help raise vital funds for local young people.

Every penny will be invested directly back into our work supporting, empowering and creating opportunities for young people across our community.

A huge thank you to everyone who took part, donated, shared our fundraiser and cheered us on. We couldn’t do what we do without you.

We’re still so proud of every single one of us who took that step over the edge! 🧗‍♀️✨

We had an amazing day at the @mountjoyltd Mountjoy Annual Charity Clay Shoot on Thursday! 🎯

This year, Mountjoy chose Politely Rebellious Next Gen CIC as the charity the event was raising money for, and we honestly can’t thank them enough.

We were so grateful to be invited along for such a brilliant day filled with good people, a little bit of friendly competition, lots of laughs and, most importantly, a shared commitment to making a difference for young people across our communities. @keshiathepoliterebel @xleahwallace @linvoyprimusmbe

A huge thank you to everyone who sponsored, attended and supported the day, and especially to LJH Electrical Southern Ltd for sponsoring the event this year. Your generosity is helping us continue creating opportunities, experiences and support for the next generation. @ljhelectricalsouthernltd

And of course, a massive thank you to the whole Mountjoy team for putting together such a brilliant day and choosing to raise money for PRNG. The support we continue to receive from the Mountjoy team means so much to us🖤

Every penny raised will go straight back into the work we do with young people, helping us create more opportunities, connect young people with inspirational role models and give them the confidence, skills and support they need to take their next steps.

We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who played a part, to our Director @simonjamesingram who tirelessly supports the work we do, and an extra big thank you to @kirstyandralph for organising & making this event happen! Here’s to continuing to make a difference together🤩

Keshia had the honour of speaking at this year’s Hampshire Constabulary Black History Month BEAM event, alongside an inspiring group of people committed to making a difference 🤝

It was a privilege to be in a room with individuals who are using their experience and leadership to help create safer, more inclusive and diverse communities. From important conversations around representation and equality to the work being done to drive positive change, events like this are a reminder of how much can be achieved when people come together with a shared purpose.

A pleasure to share the space with Chief Constable Alexis Boon, former Metropolitan Police DCI Clive Driscoll, Sarb Athwal Founder of True Honour, and Thomas Doughty Head of Leadership & Talent Development, alongside so many other inspiring individuals.

At Politely Rebellious Next Gen CIC, we believe that creating positive change starts with people being willing to have conversations & take action. That includes building communities where every young person feels safe, represented and able to access opportunities, regardless of their background or circumstances.

Thank you to Hampshire Constabulary for the invitation and for creating space for these important conversations💙

At the heart of what we do is a simple belief that young people need role models, and our city needs more of them🏙️

We believe in local legends who can use their own lived experience to help guide the next generation. It is about creating genuine connections between young people and adults and giving young people the chance to learn from people who have been there before.

These relationships can open doors, raise aspirations and help a young person see what is possible for them. This is what Empowering the Next Generation means to us!

We also want to say a huge thank you to @shotbydanny_23 for capturing these photos. Dan is an incredible young person who is building his own skills and business as a photographer, and we are proud to have him on the team for this project📸

This shoot brought together some of the people who make Next Gen what it is and we cannot wait to share more 🖤

On Friday we attended the Hampshire and Isle of Wight PCC Awards, a fantastic evening celebrating the incredible people and organisations working to keep our communities safe 🎊

Although we didn’t bring the trophies home this year, we’re incredibly proud to have been recognised within our categories: Keshia for the Working in Partnership Award and Leah for the Youth Engagement Award. Being nominated alongside so many inspiring individuals and organisations means a lot to us.

The evening brought together over 350 guests, recognising the people who go above and beyond across Hampshire and the IOW, from bravery and victim support to rural crime reduction, youth engagement and business crime prevention.

A huge thank you to Donna Jones and the team at Hampshire and Isle of Wight Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner for hosting such a wonderful event 🖤 @donnajonesmayor @hantspcc

We’re also so grateful to some of our wider @prnextgencic family for joining us on the night. Your support means the world, and we appreciate you all so much! @stilldsg @jade86louise @ricky_harding
