WE ARE A LIFE-CHANGING CHARITY

Leadership Through Sport & Business is a national social mobility charity. We prepare and support bright young people who face disadvantage into secure, sustainable, high-quality careers in accounting, business and finance.  Together with Premier League football club foundations and education delivery partners, we provide young people with personal and professional development to prepare them for the world of work, and we place them in AAT Level 2 and 3 apprenticeships with leading employers in London, Birmingham, Liverpool and Manchester.
