We are raising funds to ensure that all young people can speak and be heard. We want to provide training for every single young people across the country to ensure they are effective communicators and to provide opportunities for them to share their perspectives in public.

Situation
For too many young people their future is dictated by where they are from and not what they’re capable of. Oracy and communication are commonplace in the private school system, yet young people from under privileged backgrounds often leave school without the opportunities or confidence to have their voice and opinion heard. Covid-19 widened this gap, the isolation of lockdown impacted disadvantaged young people the most as they didn’t have the benefit of access to technology or live teaching.
Solution
Our work levels the playing field, by delivering communication skills workshops and hosting events we ensure that all young people have the skills, confidence and opportunity to have a voice and thrive in life. We develop their confidence and provide a platform to tell their story to inspire peers, make change in their community and give them the best chances in the next stage of their education and employment.
