Who we are
LITC is a pioneering NGO mobilising the power of sport to empower our local communities.
LITC offers international youth projects, volunteering, skills development and apprenticeships in a
range of dynamic training qualifications.
LITC's Sport for Development projects encourage participation, social inclusion and gender equality.
Using sport training, skills and awareness to break down barriers, end conflict and promote human
development, we work with young people and organisations that support young people and their
wider communities.
Get Active Sports
Sportivate
Sporteducate currently funds LITC's 'Get
Active Sports' programme, a three stage
programme which uses sport to help young
people move into employment or back into
education.
Each week, young people participate in
employability and skills and sports sessions,
with the option to attain employability / skillsfocused NCFE accredited qualifications.
LITC's Sportivate Get Active mobilises sport,
coaching and fun to develop young people's
skills, health and increase their participation
in sport.
Get Active delivers sports sessions, offering
a diverse menu of activities, through adapted
sports, such as 3x3 basketball, five-a-side
football, ultimate frisbee, tennis, athletics and
gym sessions.
