Mission Our mission is to provide local support that can break cycles of disadvantage and open up new opportunities for young people. We believe in the talent of every young person, and do not limit our support to those young people who have been labelled ‘bright’ or ‘gifted’. We believe that, with support, every young person can progress to an excellent post-school destination and we are committed to helping them on this journey.
Description In 45 communities across England and Scotland, IntoUniversity centres offer a safe space to learn, explore and succeed. We believe in the importance of supporting young people in their communities. Being in neighbourhoods over the long term and building relationships with local families and organisations means that IntoUniversity centres are a trusted part of the communities in which they are based.
Each centre is just like our very first: a local hub for young people, based on their doorsteps. Some of our partner communities are in major cities, like Leeds, London and Glasgow; others are in under-served coastal locations like Clacton on Sea and Weston super Mare.
But in every location, we bring about positive, measurable change.
