About
Ultra Education believes every young person should have the chance to turn their passion into a future career. All children should do what they love, regardless of their socioeconomic background and have access to an entrepreneurial education. Talent is everywhere we look, however, opportunities are not.
Ultra Education’s mission is to empower Black and marginalised communities to create their own opportunities, opening doors to paid work placements and breaking the cycle of exclusion. Since 2015, Ultra Education has supported over 15,000 young people in developing entrepreneurial skills, launching over 1,000 youth-led businesses and providing access to work experience.
Working with Youth Futures
As part of our Evidence into Action programme, the charity will pilot an evidence-based off-the-job training programme to support young people into the fundraising sector. This will involve digital fundraising, bid writing, event fundraising, and community consultation, equipping young people with transferable entrepreneurial skills for self-employment—an area of growing interest among the young people they support.
