Backing Youth

Starbucks believes the power of young people will change the world for the better.

Starbucks is all about backing youth and we do that in three main ways.  We have a long term partnership with The Prince’s Trust where we support this fantastic charity to make a difference to young people.  We do this through a combination of fund-raising and volunteering.

We run Starbucks Youth Action, our own investment programme in young people, giving seed funding, training and backing to young people running projects in their communities across the UK.  Starbucks Youth Action is delivered in partnership with UK Youth and the Irish Youth Foundation.

In addition we bring people together to debate and think about youth issues.  In our stores we host coffee house debates - most recently at the Conservative and Labour party conferences to debate whether the political parties had abandoned young people.
