What we do
We directly connect schools with volunteers from the world of work – real people in real jobs – who help children from primary age up imagine futures they never knew existed.
Children form stereotyped ideas about ‘who they can be’ as early as seven.
That’s why we work with schools from primary age up to college age, to provide inspiring career possibilities.
Our incredible volunteers work this magic. Many give just one hour a year to share their story; and this has incredible impact. Our research (and the look on the children’s faces) proves it.
What we do for corporates
We provide a way for Employers to engage with their communities both locally and nationally.
There are multiple ways you can work with us – you can establish school partnerships nationwide, enhance your employees’ skills through volunteering, achieve CSR and procurement commitments and develop a future talent pipeline.
We do all this in a cost-effective way that has proven social value. This is not a tick-box exercise – together we can have a massive (and often immediate) impact on young people, and a hugely positive impact on your team when they take part in volunteering.
