On June 12th for #SocialMobilityDay, we held a special Friends of the Brilliant Club roundtable event to tackle the key question: How can we shift mindsets on university access to support social mobility?
The recorded event is now available to watch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8e6...

Proud to support #SocialMobilityDay 💜
The UK has fallen behind our European neighbours, but thanks to individuals like Eddie & Bill from The Links Centre 2030 in #Leatherhead & the High Sheriff of Surrey, important steps are being taken to change this.
I look forward to supporting this vital work.
Today is #SocialMobilityDay and it was a delight to meet with Clare Caccavone from Making the Leap to discuss the importance of social mobility and what companies and organisations can do about it for people in #Watford.
Crazy that in 1945 a quarter of all MPs had a working class background, but in 2019, that was 7%.
No wonder social mobility is so bad in the UK! Wonder what it would be for the current parliament. #SocialMobilityDay
Today is #SocialMobilityDay! It was great to join Making the Leap in Parliament on Tuesday to discuss the importance of supporting talent from all socio-economic backgrounds. Every young person deserves the chance to succeed and step forward with confidence.
