Story

The EY Foundation launches its Sahara trek for 2016.

The expedition will see 50 EY people taking on the challenge to brave one of the world's most extreme habitats, in order to support young people across the UK who are disadvantaged in the labour market.

Latest stats show nearly 1 million 16-25 year olds in the UK are not in education, employment or training.  This shocking statistic shows the vital need for action and helps drive the EY Foundation's vision that every young person in the UK should have a great start to their working lives.

With your help, this can be possible. Please support the Sahara Trekkers as they take on this challenge and be a part of creating a positive and impactful social change in the lives of young people across the UK.
