Boeing UK: Investing in Communities
The Prince's Trust - xl clubs
The Prince's Trust xl programme provides in-school clubs in the UK for at-risk 14- to 16-year olds, giving them a place to go and receive a professionally supervised curriculum, which includes learning new skills and planning for the future. The UK-based Prince's Trust charity organisation helps young people overcome barriers and realise their potential.
- Sir Roger Bone, President Boeing UK
"We partnered with The Prince's Trust on this specific initiative because of the programme's commitment to improving the lives of youths through education. It's an opportunity to help turn young lives around."
