Nicole Ilunga Foundation
The Nicole Ilunga Foundation actively works to combat gender inequality through initiatives focused on protection, education, and healthcare.
The Democratic Republic of Congo's low female representation in economic and political spheres, despite constitutional and international commitments and despite the current prime minister being a woman, demands urgent attention. Shocking statistics reveal that fewer than 10% of women are involved in political bodies, and those who do participate face frequent violence and harassment. Overcoming cultural, social, and economic barriers is essential to enhancing women's political engagement.
Nicole Ilunga Foundation is dedicated to implementing a comprehensive range of educational activities aimed at empowering women and youth, especially those from underserved backgrounds, to take on leadership roles, advocate for change, and develop entrepreneurial skills.

Children join our weekly afterschool program, either online or at our Pirate themed space in Hackney to practise their reading and writing. By welcoming them into our joyful spaces, publishing their work in the real world, and celebrating everything they do, we develop their literacy, confidence and perseverance.

Introduction
The English-Speaking Union (ESU), is a charity and membership organisation that works to give young people the speaking and listening skills and cross-cultural understanding they need to thrive. The ESU’s speech and debate programmes and international exchanges improve young people’s attainment, self-esteem and social skills, helping them to fulfil their potential and to change their lives and communities for the better.
We are looking for volunteers to help support and judge our competitions, please find details below:
- Schools’ Mace - The oldest debating competition for schools in England and Wales (ages 11-18)
- Public Speaking Competition - The largest such competition for schools in England and Wales (ages 13-16)
- Performing Shakespeare Competition - Students express their passion and imagination and compete for a chance to perform at Shakespeare’s Globe (ages 11-14)
You don’t need to be a debater or public speaker yourself – you just need to be enthusiastic about encouraging and inspiring young people to be the best they can be. There are opportunities throughout the year, each requiring around 4-5 hours’ commitment from late afternoon onwards. Full training is given, and it’s great fun, with students often covering thought-provoking topics from obesity and the NHS to Churchill and what defines happiness.

By monitoring academic data and supporting school improvement initiatives, trustees can help schools implement strategies that raise student achievement and close attainment gaps.
Trustees ensure the financial stability and sustainability of the trust. Their oversight ensures that resources are allocated efficiently and that financial risks are managed, which directly impacts the trust’s ability to maintain and improve its educational provision. Effective budget oversight and financial planning by trustees can lead to investments in new educational resources, facilities, and staff development, thereby enhancing the learning environment.
Trustees shape the strategic direction and growth of the trust. Their decisions regarding expansion, partnerships, and new initiatives help the trust adapt to changing educational landscapes and community needs. Trustees might approve the addition of new schools to the trust, enabling it to expand its reach and impact more students, while ensuring that new schools meet the trust’s standards of excellence.
Trustees ensure that the trust operates within legal and regulatory frameworks.
