About
At Goal 17, we exist to create a fairer, more inclusive society by connecting people through safe, meaningful, and transformative volunteering.
We design and deliver high-impact mentoring and volunteering programmes that support disadvantaged young people—particularly care leavers and those facing systemic barriers—to build confidence, resilience, and brighter futures.
We believe that everyone has the potential to make a difference. That’s why we train and support volunteers to become trusted mentors, using cutting-edge safeguarding technology and accredited training to ensure every relationship is safe, supported, and impactful.
Our mission goes beyond direct delivery. We partner with local authorities, schools, and community organisations to strengthen the entire volunteer infrastructure—building local capacity, raising standards, and helping communities thrive.
Our work is underpinned by lived experience, data-driven insight, and a commitment to equity. We are proud to be a mission-driven business, reinvesting our income into growing our impact and challenging inequality at scale.
