With more than 40 years’ experience, Young Enterprise is the UK’s leading business and enterprise education charity.

It offers a range of programmes, based on the principle of Learning by Doing, which brings volunteers from business into the classroom to work with teachers and students. Some of our programmes enable students to work together to run their own real company. Others use games, hands on activities and role play to develop skills and capabilities for business and enterprise.

With more than 5,500 schools and colleges participating in our programmes, Young Enterprise currently reaches more than 350,000 young people a year from primary school right through to university.

The businesses and volunteers that support Young Enterprise take an active role in building a better-motivated, educated and enterprising workforce, at the same time making a real difference to the existing lives and future potential of young people who live and attend school in their area.

I am a newly appointed board member to the Birmingham Central and South region for Young Enterprise.

My aims on this board are to deliver current business & industry thinking, methodologies, processes and strategy to Young Enterprise enabling it to grow as an organisation in meetings its vision that all young people will have the opportunity to gain personal experience of how business works, understand the role it plays in providing employment and creating prosperity, and be inspired to improve their own prospects, and the competitiveness of the UK.
