The programmeis run by Youth Esteem UK, and is designed to build confidence and self-esteem amongst young people.
For the past three years employees of Coca-Cola Great Britain have also provided hands-on support for the programme by acting as mentors to the Valued Youth tutors from participating secondary schools in the Hammersmith and Fulham Borough where the Company head office is based. The Coca-Cola Great Britain mentors meet fortnightly to provide advice, support and additional encouragement to the Valued Youth tutors over the course of the year-long programme.
