Rooted Youth CIC is a community interest company dedicated to empowering young people, especially those facing barriers through healing-informed youth work, outreach, mentoring, and creative enrichment.
Its mission is to foster resilience, confidence, and social connection, helping young people thrive within their communities.
At Wakefield First, our experienced business support team were able to assisted Rooted Youth with their establishment as a CIC and with growing their network across the Wakefield District.
"I was recommended to contact Shabana through a friend for support with setting a CIC up. So far, I have had an initial meeting with her which was extremely helpful, I felt so motivated following it and made some actions straight away - we even discussed possible ideas to where the business could go!"
"Shabana signposted me to services such as FSB and Nova and invited me to networking events which is going to be helpful for the progression of the business."
"I’m looking forward to seeing the outcome of the support from Shabana and Wakefield First."
At Wakefield First, we provide free, unbiased, tailored business support to companies throughout the district. We're eager to help businesses, like the Rooted Youth CIC, establish or expand their operations in Wakefield.
