At ASK PIP Charity, we believe that every young person deserves the chance to explore who they are, build inner strength, and feel truly connected, both to themselves and others. That’s why we’re so excited to launch our brand-new programme: I MASCOT.
A personal note from our CEO
As the CEO of ASK PIP Charity, I’ve had the privilege of hearing so many stories from young people. Stories of courage, uncertainty, hope, and growth. I know that for many, finding a safe space to explore who they truly are can feel out of reach.
That’s why I’m so proud to introduce I MASCOT, a programme designed to empower young people to reconnect with themselves and with others.
This isn’t just another workshop or set of activities; it’s an invitation for young people to become the mascots of their own lives, to celebrate their identity, build resilience, and stand proudly in their own story.
I believe that when we ignite young people’s sense of self and give them the tools to make meaningful choices, they don’t just survive, they thrive.
I warmly invite you to join us on this journey or share it with a young person who might benefit. Together, we can help them discover the power and pride that comes from saying: “This is me.”
With heart,
Peace Anumah
CEO, ASK PIP Charity
What is I MASCOT?
I MASCOT is a unique, creative, and empowering programme designed to help young people discover their identity, strengthen their resilience, and celebrate their personal journey.
Here’s what I MASCOT stands for:
🔸 I – Ignite: We start by lighting the fire within. Who am I? What matters to me? Young people begin to see that their story matters.
🔸 M – Make Choices: We explore the power of decisions, ownership, and self-direction. It’s about taking back the pen and writing your own future.
🔸 A – Activate Energy: Through creativity and movement, we help young people discover what energises them and how to access that energy when it’s needed most.
🔸 S – Strengthen Resilience: Life can be tough. This session builds inner strength, emotional regulation, and the belief that you can get back up.
🔸 C – Celebrate Progress: Goal-setting becomes meaningful when we reflect on how far we’ve come. We cheer on even the smallest victories.
🔸 O – Open Up to Others: Connection is healing. Here, we nurture trust, safe communication, and healthy relationship skills.
🔸 T – Think with Empathy: The journey ends with perspective-taking and compassion, for ourselves and for others. We explore what it means to be part of something bigger.
Why I MASCOT?
Many young people face challenges that leave them feeling disconnected from themselves and those around them. I MASCOT offers a safe, creative, and supportive space to reconnect, build confidence, and develop essential life skills.
This programme is not just about self-discovery; it’s about empowerment, celebration, and creating a sense of belonging.
Who is it for?
I MASCOT is open to young people aged 14 to 24 who are ready to explore their identity, build resilience, and connect with others in a meaningful way.

As we launch this new programme, we are excited to invite young people to join us on this transformative journey.
