Scholars in 2025.

In England, young Black people are accessing higher education, but are less likely to obtain high grades, enter ‘prestigious’ universities, end up in a highly-skilled job, study further or have career satisfaction.

There are concerns that those from underprivileged backgrounds are at risk of being priced out of higher education, potentially reducing their lifetime earnings by c.£100,000.

Our vision is for a more equitable society and more diverse future leaders by enabling 100+ talented, disadvantaged students to thrive in education – with 15 new students joining our programme in 2025.

‘Education is the most

powerful weapon you can use

to change the world.’
