Partner with Rise

Join us in our mission to improve social mobility and help young people develop the skills that business needs.

Why get involved in Rise?

The UK ranks 21st on a global social mobility index, well behind most European countries.

Low social mobility will cost the UK economy £140 billion a year until 2050, amounting to £1.3 trillion in lost GDP over the next 40 years. Even modest increases in social mobility could increase the UK’s GDP growth by 2–4% a year.

Our objectives are:

1. Demonstrate your commitment to improving social mobility

2. Make a significant change to the career prospects of young people in the UK

3. Share best practice and learn from other organisations involved

4. Widen your future talent pool

“I really enjoyed the workshop and trying to help younger people relate their current skills to the workplace. It was something completely out of my comfort zone, but I am glad that I did it as it was great to be able to give something back.”
