Britain has a deep social mobility problem. This not only limits the contribution that individuals can make to the economy and wider society, but it is also unfair. Envision wants to change this.
Young people from more disadvantaged backgrounds often have fewer opportunities than their more privileged peers to develop the social confidence, personal efficacy and other skills that are characteristic of successful adults.
We believe that the education system can help fill this gap for these young people.
This is why we are working in partnership with schools, harnessing resources in the wider community, to deliver proven approaches to developing character and employability.
We specialise in using social action as a vehicle for development. This means that as well as preparing young people for the world of work, we are also developing a generation of change-makers willing and able to build a better society for all of us. Many young people from disadvantaged backgrounds experience social problems first-hand and are therefore more motivated to change them.
