Funding Focus

This funding will contribute towards the ongoing running costs of Making the Leap's ACE programme.

The programme transforms the lives of unemployed young people aged 18 to 25 from socio-economically disadvantaged and BAME backgrounds across London by raising their aspirations, developing their soft skills, increasing their access to opportunities and helping them to secure and sustain meaningful employment.

This grant will contribute towards helping an extra 30 young people from disadvantaged backgrounds through the programme.
