What funding builds

Programme funding

Fund a defined pathway — sector, cohort, geography — with outcomes agreed up front.

Sponsored cohorts

Put your name behind a group of people moving from preparation into employment.

Social value reporting

Starts, retention at 90 days and 6 months, progression — with definitions, cohort sizes and sources.

Honest reporting

Including what didn't work. Funders deserve the same standard of evidence we ask of ourselves.

How it works

Step 1

Define the outcome

What change, for whom, measured how — agreed before a pound moves.

Step 2

Fund the pathway

Preparation, training places, employer engagement and post-start support.

Step 3

Track the people

Cohort-level tracking from first conversation to six months in work.

Step 4

Read the report

Clear, sourced, honest reporting you can put in front of a board.

Our ambition: 100 people, then 1,000, then 10,000. Funded one honest pathway at a time.

Straight answers.

People supported, trained, interviewed, started; retention at 90 days and 6 months; employers engaged. Every figure with a definition and a period. We separate current impact from ambition — always.
