  Catalyst

  Catalyst is a not-for-profit charity dedicated to the support of young people in our community

  We recognise the need to care for and encourage young people in the Tavistock area as they journey through adolescence, which can be a challenging time. We are fuelled by a passion to see young people grow in self-confidence, self-esteem and to reach their full potential. Below are some of the ways in which we build positive relationships with young people in schools and in their communities.

• Colyton Foundation
  Colyton Foundation

  Your Future Story is an innovative new programme developed by a powerful coalition of partners from the schools, higher education and charitable sectors to tackle a critical and persistent challenge: high-attaining children from under-resourced backgrounds in the South West of England are significantly less likely to progress to higher education – especially to high-tariff universities – than their peers elsewhere in the country.

  Tavistock College is excited to begin working closely with the Colyton Foundation from September 2025.

• Mental Health Support Team
  Mental Health Support Team

  We all have mental health, just like we all have physical health. Mental health is about how we think, feel and act. Sometimes we feel well, and sometimes we don't. When our mental health is good, we feel motivated and able to take on challenges and new experiences. But when our mental health is not so good, we can find it much harder to cope and need help.

  Tavistock College is working closely in partnership with the MHST; so as to best support our young people.
