The Talent Tap is a social mobility charity on a mission to ensure no young person’s postcode determines their career opportunities.
Tackling the UK's social mobility crisis.
The UK is facing a social mobility crisis: how and where you grow up still plays a huge role in the opportunities you can access. Too many talented young people from coastal, rural and low-opportunity areas are shut out of the careers they deserve simply because of their postcode.
That’s where The Talent Tap comes in. Together with committed employers, forward-thinking funders and an amazing community of ambitious young people, we’re building a future where where you live never limits how far you can go.
Unlock your future and gain work experience opportunities, career guidance, and a lifelong network.
Support and learn from the next generation. Link ESG commitments and make a difference.
Provide exceptional career development opportunities, and achieve Gatsby career benchmarks.
“Today, you are still 60% more likely to get a professional job if you come from a privileged background rather than a working-class background.”
