Powering the next generation







How we help
We believe every young person deserves the tools to thrive in a digital-first world.
Through creative computing workshops, climate-themed tech resources and teacher and community leader training, we're breaking down barriers to digital access. Our work supports hundreds of thousands of young people each year to build skills, confidence, and a sense of agency; in schools, communities, and beyond.
We partner with schools, libraries and grassroots organisations to ensure digital learning reaches the communities that need it most. Our programmes are designed to be inclusive, accessible and locally driven.
From climate-focused coding challenges to creative computing workshops, our initiatives empower young people through hands-on, meaningful learning experiences. We support both formal and non-formal education settings.

🛠️ Skills
We equip young people with essential digital skills; from coding and robotics to online safety and creative problem-solving. Everything we do is designed to build confidence, resilience and future-ready mindsets.

We embed climate literacy and sustainability themes across our programmes, helping young people understand their role in building a greener, fairer digital world.
