New charity investment – Vital Regeneration
PEF has invested in a new portfolio charity, Vital Regeneration, to help more of London’s most disadvantaged young people through a unique mix of music production, event management, literacy improvement and personal development. PEF is donating up to £530,000, alongside pro bono resources, over three years to help Vital Regeneration achieve its aim of changing hundreds of young lives by scaling up its Studio+ programme.
PEF hosts conference on young people in partnership with Department for Children, Schools and Families
PEF, in association with the Department for Children, Schools and Families (DCSF) and Innovation Exchange, has organised a unique conference, “Collaborating for Change”. Hosted at UBS, it brought together leaders from business, charity and local government to forge new partnerships to tackle the key issue of young people not in education, employment or training (NEET).
