Overall aim
  • Demonstrating the power of collaboration through best practice
  • Strengthening holistic support for young people towards social mobility
  • Understanding the importance of forging true partnerships between businesses and the community/NFP sector
Description

We invite you to an engaging panel event exploring best practices in corporate charity partnerships that drive social mobility.

Hear from MyBnk and Working Rite, alongside their corporate partner, the abrdn Charitable Foundation. Discover the vital role abrdn plays in supporting both charities within the social mobility space, while gaining actionable takeaways on effective collaboration between corporate and charitable partners.

This will be an interactive and dynamic panel discussion, with opportunities for audience engagement, giving delegates an introduction to our work – what we do, why we do it, who we work with, and how it benefits our learners and communities.

The event will showcase the essence of true partnership and the unique power of cross-sector collaboration, featuring representatives from abrdn, MyBnk, and Working Rite, as well as young people who have directly benefited from these programmes. Delegates will hear firsthand success stories and gain an enriched understanding of the transformative impact of this work.

We believe this event will be of interest to professionals across a variety of roles in the sector. So, join us to be inspired and informed about what’s possible when we work together to create lasting change.
