We tackle barriers to employment faced by young people from low-income backgrounds, supporting them to unlock their potential and succeed in the workplace. We do this by: - delivering employability programmes - supporting employers to drive social mobility - and generating insights to help influence systemic change. So that the opportunity to succeed is available to all young people, employers can access fantastic, diverse talent, and society benefits from driving growth and creating a lasting impact for future generations. We have a bold ambition to enable the 2 million young people eligible for free school meals to have an employment and earnings potential that is equitable to other young people in the UK. The EY Foundation is an independent UK charity registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales.
