Over 550 people tuned in to celebrate the fantastic achievements of young people across the UK taking part in our Company Programme. Over the last 10 months, we are proud to have worked with over 13,700 young people, 719 schools, and supported over 1,068 student business start-ups. The Awards, hosted by YE Alumna Steph McGovern took place digitally due to Covid-19. Check out the highlights and full list of winners here.
We understand the challenges that schools will face upon re-convening and are equally aware of the impact that this period will have on young people now and in the future. We have made the necessary adaptations to ensure our programmes have the flexibility to continue to provide much needed skills enrichment for your young people in the 2020/21 academic year.

At Young Enterprise, we are constantly inspired by what young people can achieve. No Time Like The Future is about extending our reach to young people in all parts of the country, opening doors they didn’t know existed. The Time to Act is Now. Get Involved
Young Enterprise is a national charity. We motivate young people to succeed in the changing world of work by equipping them with the work skills, knowledge and confidence they need to succeed.
We believe that the potential of the UK’s young people is unlimited, and an academic education on its own is not enough. We empower young people to discover, develop and celebrate their skills and potential.
In 2018/19, we reached 482,000+ young people across the UK, helping them to develop their business, financial and entrepreneurial capabilities.
Since 1962, we have worked with both the business and education sectors to engage over four million young people. We believe in the power of ‘learning by doing’ and the difference that it has made and continues to make to the lives, futures and ambitions of young people.
We are committed to increasing our engagement in deprived areas. In 2018/19 we worked with 57% of secondary schools in the 30% most deprived areas in England and Wales. This remains a key priority.
Engagement of volunteers from industry and business is a vital ingredient in helping young people develop the confidence and knowledge to start work, and to gain an understanding of the skills and attitudes valued by employers.
Your support matters. It improves the prospects of young people and makes a real difference. View full list of supporters here
