By widening access to culture, careers and creativity, we aim to help build confidence, deepen skills and widen opportunity for communities across the UK and Ireland. From opening the doors of theatres for thousands, supporting pathways into banking, and backing creative social entrepreneurs, our education partnerships aim to create lasting impact.
Helping widen access to opportunity
Dedicated to social mobility for over a decade, we help increase access to education, careers and skills development through expert partners like the Sutton Trust, Globe Theatre, Write to Read and Local Village Network. Our employees play a role too, helping young people to foster confidence, raise aspirations and build future-ready skills. Find out more.

Uniting our projects is a commitment to learning how to better care for the natural world alongside local experts, young people and community groups. Find out more
