Why We Exist

Spark! facilitates inspiring careers and employability events, as well as high quality work experience for students based in London and further afield.

Regular and meaningful engagement with the world of work and employers is widely acknowledged to play a key part in preparing young people for the future. This is reflected in the Gatsby Benchmarks which the Government has set out as an exemplary model for a well-rounded careers education.

With the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, and rapidly rising youth unemployment, now even more than ever, society has a responsibility to provide employability opportunities for the next generation.
