Elevate EBP’s Chief Executive Gill Ditchburn gave Cllr Atkinson an update on the organisation which for the past 25 years, has been working to provide young people with projects that link the education curriculum with careers and the local labour market.
Meaningful Further and Higher Education experiences, encounters with employers and experiences of the workplace for young people can all be part of this work.
Cllr Atkinson said:
“Elevate EBP are the only Education Business Partnership in our City Region, and they are passionate about strengthening our local economy and creating opportunities for our young people.
“The chance to experience education and work environments that they might not normally have access to is a great way of opening up new horizons to young people who may have grown up in circumstances that would otherwise limit their ambitions and potential.”
Peter Dowd MP said:
“Elevate are totally focused on ensuring that the young people it engages with are given the best opportunity to understand the world of work in a supportive manner and environment.
They also help young people to build up their confidence which will enable them to face the many challenges that work will bring. Quite simply, they do a great job!”
Gill Ditchburn said: “It was great to welcome Cllr Atkinson and Peter Dowd MP to discuss Elevate EBP’s impact on the lives of our young people and growth support of our local economy.
“It was certainly a timely visit as we enter our 25th year of delivering aspirational and education business link activity right across the Liverpool City Region.
“Our reach geographically has grown enormously during this time and our network of partners is firmly established and expanding on a daily basis. The young people we now support has spread right from raising aspiration with Primary school aged pupils to supporting young adults back into employment or education/training.
“Its an exciting time for Elevate EBP and great to share our success with Cllr Atkinson and Peter Dowd MP and showcase how we Transform Lives and Create Growth”
