We are delighted to be accepting donations for The Access Project as part of our wedding because we believe that every young person deserves the opportunities that we have had.
University to us was a blessing, where we made lifelong friends, built ambitious futures and (cringe) found each other. It doesn't bear thinking about that others might miss out on the opportunity to find friends, a rewarding career and a future spouse(!) simply because of their economic or social background.
Young people from the most disadvantaged backgrounds are almost ten times less likely to go to a top university than their most affluent peers. Through their work in schools, and with the support of volunteer tutors, this is something that The Access Project can change. The Access Project believes that every young person, regardless of background, should have the opportunity to reach their potential.
