Story

The Talent Foundry aims to increase social mobility by helping young people from disadvantaged backgrounds discover what they are amazing at, develop valuable new employment skills and take that first step into the world of work.

We do this because in the UK, parental income remains the single strongest indicator of educational attainment.

Your support will be helping us to level the playing field of opportunity so every child can achieve their full potential, regardless of their socio-economic background.

We believe that everyone has something they are amazing at, they just need to discover what it is and your donation will help them do that.

Working with schools, corporate partners and public sector organisations we deliver facilitated workshops and insight events to help young people build their employability skills and confidence.

"I have really enjoyed working on a technology task that I am not that knowledgable about and speaking out - which has increased my confidence. It presented me with a challenge and I was able to step outside my fear zone."
