The Aldridge Foundation uses entrepreneurship as a catalyst for young people to create lasting social change for themselves and their communities.
We do this by
- Empowering young people to direct their own lives, raise their aspirations and change their future for the better.
- Creating opportunities for young people that develop skills and support them to achieve excellence.
- Building new partnerships and challenging current structures, thus enabling young people to realise their potential.
Academies
Social Cohesion
The Foundation supports a number of projects that look to work local residents in our communities, as part of its commitment to enhancing education achievement and improving social cohesion for young people and all local residents. All projects aim to inspire an entrepreneurial mindset within those involved.
The Foundation believes that supporting communities in this way will raise aspirations, improve well-being and encourage positive participation in programmes that will bring about benefits for all those within the areas in which we work.
