We connect students from socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds with employers from a range of sectors, allowing the next generation to establish their first professional network to gain an advantage in their careers and make informed decisions on their future. To achieve this, we train employees in partner companies to become effective mentors for students at this key point in their lives.
Our programme creates lasting professional networks for students who don't feel that they have the personal and family connections to gain an advantage in their career. The mentor and mentee dynamic prevails long after the programme finishes, with many students utilising their mentor for career advice and opportunities well into the future.
We pride ourselves on being one of the UK’s leading social impact companies, having recently received an award for our positive impact from the London Chamber of Commerce.
Our partner companies hail from a range of sectors, yet one thing remains constant: they are all interested in corporate social responsibility activities to change the way young people access work. A keen desire towards promoting diversity and inclusion, enhancing social mobility and giving back to local communities reigns strong amongst all our partners.
Importantly, our partners see the value of professional mentoring for young people and how this can benefit both mentor and mentee. As one of the UK’s award winning social impact companies, we’re here to help elevate the ‘social’ in ESG.
Check out our data and findings to discover the true impact of mentoring in the UK on our past mentors and mentees.
