I'm joining The King's Trust CEO Challenge

I’m proud to be taking on The King’s Trust CEO Challenge this year, raising funds to help eliminate youth unemployment.

At Sky, our multi-year partnership with The King’s Trust has already supported hundreds of young people to build confidence, develop skills and take meaningful steps towards employment.

Together, we deliver programmes that open doors into industry, like Get Started with News and Sport which has seen a third of participants who were previously not in education, employment or training, secure full-time roles.

We have also raised vital funds through our Palace to Palace sponsorship and Change a Girl’s Life activity, while using our platforms to amplify The Trust’s message.

But there’s more to do.

As part of a team of business leaders, we are together aiming to raise £500,000 through this year’s CEO Challenge, demonstrating our shared commitment to the next generation.

Every pound raised will help The King’s Trust reach more young people across the UK who are facing barriers to opportunity, giving them the skills, confidence and resilience they need to succeed.
