What the charity exists to do
The purpose of the Charity is to advance education and to advance citizenship or community development. The vision is to raise up and release leadership in all young people across UK schools to transform their world. The mission is to give young people the confidence and skills to better lead in every area of their lives. Our values are: 1. Our leaders are self-aware as they understand their identity, individual talents, gifts, and personality. 2. Our leaders are transformational and believe everyone can positively change themselves, help others to develop for the better and significantly impact their world. 3. Our leaders have integrity and understand that well-rounded growth is essential to effective leadership. The LEAD programme engages every area of the participant’s life including their mind, emotions, spirituality and physical activity.
