Our partnership with 15billionebp is essential to the smooth-running of our secondary school work in Newham.  They provide excellent support and communications with our schools partners, enabling us to engage effectively with students.  There is so much talent and potential in Newham schools; we must all do our best to ensure they have access to experiences and opportunities that will inspire that talent to flourish.

The partnership with 15billionebp has allowed our pupils to have a greater exposure to, and encounters with, employers and workplaces. Pupils have had opportunities to participate 1-1 mentoring programmes with nationally and internationally recognised firms such as Lendlease, MacFarlanes, KPMG and Clifford Chance. They have been involved in Mock Interview and BOSS Days to develop communication and presentation skills needed to prepare them for work in the wider world. It is a partnership that is enabling us, as a school, to develop a more stable careers programme.

Our experience of working with 15Billionebp over the past few years has been amazing and one we have greatly enjoyed. The company’s Work Week programme is a fantastic opportunity for staff to volunteer and do something totally different – an experience that has been very rewarding for those involved. I would encourage all businesses to consider working with 15Billionebp. The programmes are fun, creative and well run and they really help you to make the most out of your volunteering activities. It’s a working partnership that benefits everybody involved.

The 15billionebp has been fantastic for our coaches. They have enjoyed working in the schools, and engaging in sporting activities to keep the children healthy, while educating them about the different jobs in sports. The enthusiasm from the children has made it easier for the coaches to provide fun and productive activities, and this interaction with the school would not have been been possible without the brilliant work of 15billionebp.
