WildHearts Schools: Engage with Young People in Your Community
By partnering with leading organisations across the UK, the WildHearts Schools Programme creates meaningful opportunities that help break down barriers and improve social mobility for young people, regardless of their background or circumstances.
Our Schools Programme equips students with the confidence, skills and real-world business experience they need to access future employment opportunities. Through employer engagement, practical learning and exposure to the world of work, young people are better prepared to make informed choices about their futures.
Partnering with the WildHearts Schools Programme enables your organisation to play an active role in improving social mobility within your local communities, while ensuring all engagement aligns with your wider social value and strategic objectives.
This webinar is designed for business leaders who want to understand how their organisation can support social mobility through partnership with the WildHearts Schools Programme. You will hear how organisations including Nestlé, Zurich and Siemens are engaging with our Schools Programme to empower young people and create positive impact across the UK.
