Little, Brown Book Group has announced a partnership with award-winning education charity, Future Frontiers.
Future Frontiers’ mission is to provide young people from disadvantaged backgrounds with the guidance, networks and opportunities they need to fulfil their potential at school, in further education and in employment.
From January, 15 volunteers from Little, Brown Book Group and Hachette UK’s central departments will be offering students careers advice and coaching them in the pathways to get there.
Tamsin Kitson, group publicity and marketing director at Little, Brown Book Group, who set up the partnership said: “The work that Future Frontiers does with students from disadvantaged backgrounds is completely inspiring.

“This partnership aligns with Hachette UK’s central strategic pillar, Changing the Story, that puts diversity and inclusion at the core of everything we do. We are very excited to begin in January."
Rachel Kingston, director of fundraising and partnerships at Future Frontiers, said: “We are delighted to be working with Little, Brown Book Group and Hachette UK to give a group of young people greater insight into, understanding of and access to the world of work. This will make a real difference to the students’ careers awareness and readiness for work, as well as the motivation to access a career they aspire to.”
