The idea
Positive youth development programmes take a strengths-based approach to promoting thriving, through activities such as music, sport, scouting and civic projects.
In practice
A youth sports team building teamwork, leadership and self-regulation alongside fitness.
Where people slip
Sport participation links to mental-health benefits and life skills; lower-income children, who may gain most, have the least access.
