In the UK the charity sector plays a significant role in our lives, although many of us are unaware of its full impact. The range is huge, from campaigning on issues such as human rights, housing and the environment, to running organisations and services on which we depend. These include the majority of state secondary schools, mental health services, medical research, cancer care in our hospitals, theatres and art galleries and much, much more!

The charity sector employs close to 1 million people in the UK, or 3% of the UK’s workforce. This is 27% higher than 10 years ago. It also provides volunteering opportunities for over 16 million people!

We want to make the charity sector more attractive to talented young people as a place to work and forge a career. Our focus is on helping those who are under-represented in the sector to overcome the barriers to entry they face, including the cost of further education and access to opportunities.
