About us
Who we are
Young Enterprise is the UK’s leading charity that empowers young people to harness their personal and business skills. We work with young people, their teachers and parents, businesses and influencers to build a sustainable future for all young people and society at large.
Through our hands-on employability and financial education programmes, resources and teacher training, we want to eradicate youth unemployment, help young people realise their potential beyond education and empower a generation to learn, to work and to live.
Each year we work with over 250,000 young people aged 4-25, supported by a network of 5,000 volunteers and 3,500 businesses.
