About the organisation
We believe that every young person should have the opportunity to fulfil their potential and make the most of their education. We’re passionate about reducing the educational barriers our students face, helping them to pursue a career in their chosen field and follow their dreams.
Our mission is to support students from disadvantaged backgrounds to access top universities, through a unique combination of tuition and in-school mentoring. We work with them to make good applications, get the grades and transition to university.
The programme combats educational inequality and improves social mobility by raising students’ grades and supporting them to understand the pathway to a top university. Students who receive support from our programme are more than twice as likely to attend top universities as statistically similar students, according to UCAS.

People who work at The Access Project are motivated by the desire to create a fairer society. We all play an active part in achieving the mission to help students from disadvantaged backgrounds access top universities. At The Access Project, we’re a friendly, collaborative, supportive and inclusive team, with passionate people working together in Programmes, Strategy & Impact, Volunteering, Fundraising & Communications and Operations to achieve our mission.

Who are we?
The Jon Egging Trust is a dynamic and innovative youth engagement charity supporting young people to realise their potential.
Over the past decade, JET has supported more than 30,000 young lives through our unique motivational and inspirational programmes, based on teamwork, leadership and employability skills, which we deliver in collaboration with corporate and military partners across the UK. The Covid-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on young people, with those from disadvantaged backgrounds disproportionately affected. Our interventions are needed more than ever. With ambitions to reach out to more young people by 2031, it’s truly an exciting time to join our team.
The Trust was set up in honour of Flt Lt Jon Egging, who lost his life following a display at the Bournemouth Air Festival in 2011. He was coming to the end of his first year with the world-famous Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team ‘The Red Arrows’ flying in the position of Red 4.
