1st October 2024 Our successful week of awards

It’s been a busy couple of weeks for our team. We’ve attended not one, not two, but three incredible awards events, where we were honoured to be nominated, and we even came home with a trophy!

We don't do what we do for the awards. We’re proud of our work breaking down barriers to opportunities, and supporting young people up and down the country develop the confidence and skills for a better future.

We are incredible thankful for the recognition we received through these awards.

We begin with the Corporate Engagement Awards, where we won:

• Gold for Most Innovative Collaboration for our Rise programme, championed by ICAEW.
• Silver in Most Effective Long Term Commitment for our partnership with Dell Technologies
• Bronze in the Best Community Involvement During a CSR Programme category for our work with M&G plc

The very next night, we went to the Third Sector Awards.

• Rise was nominated for Medium Corporate Partnership of the Year.

And then two days later, we were at The Charity Times Awards, where we were nominated in two categories:

• Charity of the Year with an incoming of £1m - £10m
• Corporate National Partnership Champion, for our long term partnership with Dell Technologies.

All of these achievements represent the hard work of a lot of people - including our partners, local Rise partners, expert facilitators, inspiring volunteers, schools, students and our passionate TTF team - who all work together to make our programmes a success.

We couldn’t have done any of it without you.
