“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world” Nelson Mandela
At MyKindaFuture we believe this and work hard to deliver on our social mission to ‘give every young person equally power and opportunity to shape their future.’ We are pleased to be working with a range of companies to host an event during Black History Month to celebrate the power of possibility and self-belief and achievement of black people in the UK and beyond. Join us for an inspirational evening with a chance to pose your questions to the panel and enjoy networking over drinks and nibbles.
