WHAT IS HITZ?
HITZ is one team, with one dream,
to help young people find a better future.
We believe that every young
person, no matter their background or ability, should have access to
opportunities that help them fulfil their potential.
When young people are not sure of
their next move, HITZ is here to support them.
Our HITZ Officers and Tutors are
carefully chosen for their skills which allow them to really connect with young
people. We get to know our students, building a rapport and earning trust and
respect. We’re here to support when times feel tough as well as providing
guidance to work out what to do next.
WHO IS HITZ FOR?

homelife and lack of support
