Helping 600 Young People Launch Careers in 2025

Aim: Up-skilling 600 young people from under-represented backgrounds so they can launch careers in the digital economy.

WYK runs free to access skills bootcamps that enable young people from under-represented backgrounds to launch careers in digital, marketing & technology. 

We're running a Crowdfunder Campaign to support our efforts to train 600 young people in 2025. Every penny donated will go towards supporting our participants in gaining access to the digital economy.

• Over half of our participants come from the two lowest deciles in the Indices Of Multiple Deprivation (a measure which evaluates how deprived a area is).
• 73% of our trainees are from minority backgrounds 
• 56% of our trainees are female 
• 17% report some form of support need
• The average starting salary for one of our trainees is over £25k per year

The fund has been matched by The Aviva Community Fund, meaning that every pound donated will be doubled by them!
