Support Us

We want to excite and inspire young people, help them realise they can dream, that they can develop skills for life, for learning and for employment.

Case for Support

Young people from disadvantaged backgrounds have to close a 23% gap just to attain at the same rate as their more affluent peers. The odds are seriously stacked against them which reinforces worklessness, poverty and associated problems.

 We want to break that cycle. We want to give these young people the skills and opportunities that will raise their aspirations and build dreams that become a reality and need your help.
