Story

Our mission is to inspire and invite women from all over the country to get together for breakfast to raise money for The Prince's Trust's Women Supporting Women initiative. Young people are among the hardest hit by COVID-19 - Prince's Trust research says over half of young women say their anxiety has increased because of the crisis and say finding a job feels impossible, this is why its more important than ever to support young women.

As part of The Prince's Trust's Women Supporting Women initiative, we are asking for your help to raise the desperately needed funds to support them into education, employment or training. With enough Brilliant Breakfasts happening up and down the country we can make a big difference and have some fun together in the process!

£5: could pay for a reading module towards an English qualification for 1 young woman

£10: could teach 1 young woman how to manage their money with a day-long budgeting session

£25: could help an isolated young woman travel to a two-week course that will help them gain work experience

£50: could ensure 1 young woman can travel to work in the month before their first paycheque

£100: could buy the equipment that opens up a lifelong career for a young woman on the margins of society - for example to become as chef, a hairdresser, a nail technician

£250: could provide 1 young woman with the freedom to explore their business idea through a 'will it work' grant

£500: could unlock 1 young womans confidence on a 12-week personal development course which builds practical and emotional skill to take that next step into work, education or training

£1,000: could give 5 young women struggling to make ends meet during Covid-19 the laptops they need to further their education

£5,000: could re-build the confidence and inspire 7 young women from the margins of society on a life-changing residential week

£10,000: could give 100 young women the equipment that opens up a lifelong career to help them and their families

Lets get behind our young women who are in real need of a helping hand now. Every penny we raise for The Prince's Trust's Women Supporting Women initiative will help create real change for our young women who need us most.
