What we will do

In recent discussions it has become clear that some in the sector assume we are another charity helping big corporates meet inclusion/access/diversity targets. We laud the efforts of those who do just this, their work is important and needed.

But we are not them.

We are not about bums on seats. We aren’t about providing lists of names to companies in exchange for donations. Instead, we believe passionately in helping individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds create the network they need to succeed in our sector.

We aim to breach the often opaque networks that are barriers to access. We set out to give the rules of the game to those who need them and properly support them in navigating those paths with clarity and with financial support where needed.

We know one conversation can make a difference, turn a life around, be that connection who opens up a world of possibilities. And yes, we will also continue running quality networking events that provide introductions that will do just that.

We are about more than sourcing a week-long placement. We are there for the long run, through the placement, advocating for an apprenticeship, supporting at university, ensuring and even financing a summer internship, making introductions for post graduate jobs and preparing individuals for success in chosen qualifications and chartership. We will help our candidates build their Network for Life.

This ethos will be mirrored in our consultancy commissions – the schools, colleges, public bodies, developers and other clients we work with will be encouraged to nominate those who they know do not have the support networks they need to succeed.

So, do you know someone who needs our support? Want to hear more about our work? Reach out and join us on the journey.
