Description: UpRising is a UK-wide youth leadership development organisation. Our mission is to open pathways to power for talented young people from diverse and under-represented backgrounds. We equip them with the knowledge, networks, skills, and confidence to fulfill their leadership potential, find new opportunities and transform the world around them through social action. Our important work provides routes to leadership and employment for 16-25 year olds who have talent, but lack opportunity. The mission is to break the cycle of unrepresentative power in the UK, by developing new, community-minded and socially-conscious leaders; so that our future decision-makers truly represent our diverse communities.
Services delivered: Leadership and Environmental Leadership programmes for 18-25 year olds, and employability programmes for 16 - 25 year olds.
