We have been designing and delivering engaging ways for employers and young people to come together for over 30 years.

Each year we work with over 23,000 young people to deliver a wide range of initiatives designed to build confidence, raise aspirations and help them to successfully prepare to enter the world of work.

We work in partnership with around 1,500 businesses whose involvement with our activities often supports their own Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) goals

80% of businesses said that working with schools encouraged young people to take up careers in their sector.

78% said it increased job applications

We work in partnership with around 900 businesses whose involvement with our activities also often supports their own Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) goals.

We help businesses to:

attract applicants (into apprenticeships, graduate programmes or direct entry roles)
address skills shortages
inspire students to enter a career in their sector
improve the employability skills of young people
host work experience students
gain feedback/insight from young people

In addition, involvement with EBP enables employers to improve employee engagement by offering volunteering opportunities as well as enhancing and developing employees skills through mentoring and coaching.

🙏 We are seeking support to fund the foundations of our organisation – the people, resources, and infrastructure that allow us to deliver high-quality, impactful programmes to those who need them most.

Every day, we work with young people who have huge potential but lack the support, skills, and confidence to access meaningful opportunities.

While our programmes change lives, the reality is that behind every workshop, every mentoring session, and every success story are essential core costs that make this work possible. Core costs are often the hardest to fund, yet they are the backbone of everything we do.

➡️ Your donation will help cover:
~ Staff time to plan and deliver life-changing workshops
~ Programme development to ensure our content reflects real employer needs
~ Safeguarding, training, and support for young people
~ Essential running costs
~ Outreach to reach more young people who would otherwise miss out

🪙 Every contribution, no matter the size, helps us continue this important work.
