Community (Youth) on Solid Ground - YSG is a passionate, community-led charity working to improve the life opportunities, personal development, and wellbeing of children, young people, and families across Manchester.
We are powered by a dedicated and experienced team who understand the real challenges faced by young people—particularly those from diverse and underserved communities. Our shared vision is to help young people achieve their full potential, overcome barriers, and grow into confident, responsible individuals.
We support children and young people through youth work, mentoring, education, sport, and creative programmes.
We prioritise health, resilience, employability, and social inclusion.
We work collaboratively with schools, councils, and local services to deliver effective, inclusive support.
Thanks to strong leadership and trusted partnerships, CSG has grown into a recognised and reliable organisation that responds to local needs and delivers real impact. We continue to evolve, broaden our horizons, and design new initiatives that inspire the next generation.
