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.
An integral part of our partnership with the Universities of Edinburgh and Glasgow, Community Liaison Officers, Tom and Niamh reflect on their roles, how their efforts enrich IntoUniversity’s offering for its young people and how the partnership has grown in the three years since its inception.
Many of our mentors choose to volunteer with us because they want to support young people to develop their skills, but they often end up getting just as much out of the Mentoring programme as our young people do.
Every day, across the IntoUniversity network, thousands of little moments occur. These little moments can make a world of difference to the young people we strive to support.
