Dr Rachel Carr, our Chief Executive and Co-Founder, looks back on the successes of our Big City Bright Future internship programme as we celebrate its tenth birthday!
Our programme, Big City Bright Future, has turned 10!
A partnership between the University of Hull, the University of York and IntoUniversity, the UK’s largest university-access charity, will be significantly growing the scope of its work in Yorkshire and the Humber, opening two new education centres in Grimsby and Bridlington.
Our model is based on creating permanent physical spaces in areas where our support can reach the highest number of young people in need. However, areas change. Andrew McWhirter, Assistant Head of Operations and Programme Delivery, explores the process of 're-feasibility', and how IntoUniversity uses this to ensure the ongoing effectiveness of each of our centres.
As we speed through September, let’s take a moment to pause and reflect on the brilliant school holiday programmes we ran throughout the summer.
IntoUniversity has featured in the shortlists of the Times Higher Education Awards and the Charity Times Awards.
Young people in Leicester will have a greater chance of realising their ambitions thanks to a new education centre in the city.
IntoUniversity launched its new centre in Kirkby alongside partners the University of Liverpool, LFC Foundation, Everton in the Community and the Steve Morgan Foundation, in an event attended by local community represesentatives, supporters, young people and their families.
A new learning centre officially launching in Peterborough today is set to empower thousands of young people to achieve their academic and career ambitions.
