"After a decade working in educational leadership across both mainstream and alternative provision, I witnessed firsthand the pressing need for systemic change. At Impetus, I am committed to supporting and enabling colleagues to drive impact and empower charities supporting young people across the UK."

"When I first encountered Impetus, I was intrigued by their approach to working with charity partners. The investment in terms of time and unrestricted income they make available to their charity partners, and the rigour and commitment they make to each is significant and inspiring. Ultimately, it is about improving the opportunities for young people whom the charity partners serve. When I see the work the charities do and their commitment to real impact for young people I am optimistic for them. Impetus donors and supporters have made significant investments in us so we can be effective and impactful for our charity partners. It is a really impressive model and I am delighted to be a part of it."

"Impetus is a great marriage of the passion and dedication you would expect from an organisation working to transform the lives of young people from disadvantaged backgrounds with the focus on genuine and measurable impact that an evidence-based approach can yield. The proof is in the results achieved by our charity partners, and I'm happy to be working in an organisation punching above its weight by leveraging the best possible interventions by these partners with our own influencing and leadership-building work."

“Ending a first meeting with a potential charity partner and saying to myself ‘this Chief Exec takes nothing for granted, is very reflective about her charity's impact and is open about her leadership challenges' – that, was a very exciting moment, and the start of a great partnership.”

"Supporting charities to find what works and taking their impact to scale is more vital than ever in tackling the barriers that hold back too many young people.

"Impetus and our partners are uniquely placed to take those voices to power and achieve lasting change.”
