ABOUT THE PROGRAMME

Our goals

Impact Hub Bradford are delivering 1-hour interactive workshops across secondary schools in the District, to young people from Key Stages 4 & 5, giving students invaluable insights into the VCSE sector and Social Entrepreneurship to raise awareness of the exciting career opportunities in this growing sector.

Having already delivered this to over 13.5 thousand young people and gaining excellent feedback on it, we at Impact Hub Bradford are delighted to bring this learning to more schools until the end of 2023. For more information, or to register your interest for a workshop in your school, please email our Project Delivery Officer at [email protected]

A number of Bradford organisations have come together as a consortium to represent the city in the Local Access Programme. Each bring a unique perspective and set of skills to the group, forming a diverse, agile and innovative team representing the city’s brightest communities.
