Migrant Leaders is proud to continue working in partnership with the NSPCC to present our two-part Safeguarding briefing for our Mentors

In Part 1 we cover the legislative context and look at why Safeguarding is important for our Migrant Leaders mentors and for mentees. We also look at the blocks that prevent young people from talking about their concerns and others from hearing them. Finally we consider how mentors can take care of themselves in the Safeguarding context.

Part 2 covers Migrant Leaders’ procedures for Safeguarding and provides an opportunity to work with other mentors to look at possible scenarios.

Elham Fardad, Migrant Leaders Founder & CEO highlights the impact of this partnership “CBRE’s support of Migrant Leaders gives our charity the resources we need to reach thousands more deserving young people with life changing educational impact.

We are pleased to share the news that Migrant Leaders is collaborating with the Financial Reporting Council!

Our first collaboration was a one-week onsite quality work experience for A Level students at the London office of the Financial Reporting Council.

The FRC promotes transparency and integrity in business by setting codes and standards for accounting and actuarial work; reviewing the quality of corporate reporting and audit; and taking enforcement action where necessary.

We designed this opportunity especially for all A Level students wanting to gain a high-quality work experience. We had an action packed and interactive week for the students including working in teams on a project, learning about a senior manager’s career journey, advice on planning their careers and developing communication and presentation skills.

We are super excited to share the news that Migrant Leaders is partnering with Meta!

Our first big collaboration was a full day conference, workshops and focus group on 5th December at the Meta offices in London. We took 150 Migrant Leaders students to our packed day. See video here: Meta

We are pleased to share the news that Migrant Leaders is continuing its long-standing partnership since 2018 with Smith+Nephew!

This collaboration was a half day experience with a choice of attending the morning or afternoon sessions, Speed STEM workshops, product demo and tour of the medical training facilities on 7th December at the Smith+Nephew Headquarters. More than 100 of our Migrant Leaders students met healthcare and other professionals and gained an understanding of the wide range of STEM careers within Smith+Nephew.
