Partnership to create opportunities for thousands of young people in Salford
Posted date: 17 Jun 2022
A new partnership between the University of Salford, the University of Manchester and IntoUniversity - the UK’s largest university-access charity - has been announced which will see The Beacon Centre in Salford become a learning centre for students aged 7-18 in the autumn.
In central Salford, more than half of young people are growing up in poverty, which has long-lasting effects on educational attainment (End Child Poverty, 2019).
The centre will work closely with local schools and with the Universities of Salford and Manchester to improve educational outcomes for these young people. It will also add to existing youth services provided by The Beacon Centre, as well as working alongside other organisations serving the community from the centre in Salford, including Early Break, 42nd Street, Salford Community Leisure and Foundation 92.
