About Future Frontiers:

In the UK, family income is the strongest predictor of how well a young person will do at school and the future opportunities they will have. Future Frontiers exists to change this. Our vision is of a society where equal access to education and career opportunities enables potential to overcome poverty. 

We support young people from disadvantaged backgrounds to realise their potential and work towards secure and fulfilling employment. In partnership with schools, businesses and supporters, we deliver an evidence-based programme of career coaching, opportunities and guidance for young people from lower income households.

Those patient contributions are vital, always helping us and our partners to understand what life is like with kidney disease, always ensuring we see the patient behind the treatment and always reminding us that behind every statistic and every number is a person – the patients and the carers who inspire our mission and push us forward to make a difference and change the future of kidney disease.
