Become a corporate sponsor

We are looking for corporate partners who believe in our vision and mission and are willing to back us. We have a phenomenal track record, but we have a lot still to achieve and a lot of students to reach. Plus, there are many ways a partnership could work – including not just annual financial support, but also employee engagement opportunities, internships, guest speaker slots, volunteer days and more!

We are also looking for a funder to grow our online mentoring platform and reach more students around the UK!
