Case: COMPANY NAME

Talent is equally distributed. Opportunity is not. There are over 1 million unemployed people in the UK. But this challenge is not spread equally – unemployment is disproportionately experienced by certain groups with huge variances; young people, ethnic minorities, those with disabilities or without degrees are twice or more as likely to be and remain unemployed.

At the same time, there are more than 1 million vacancies in the UK, with many new, exciting, well-paid jobs being created in growth sectors; enough to support everyone into work. Despite this, many employers of all sizes struggle to hire motivated and diverse talent.

Generation is a charity committed to bridging this gap. With our unique bootcamp training model with extensive wrap-around support, we support people facing significant and multiple barriers to employment into life-changing careers.

We can only scale our work and impact with the support of partners and funders. Carry on reading to find out more.
