The Power Platform 

The Power Platform creates ways to measure, recognise and celebrate the community; redefining what power means in the world. Throughout its initial stages, the PoWEr up collective will get communities involved through events, programmes and opportunities and connect to role models through the power platform. The collective will create a hub for collaboration, mentoring and creation of opportunities. As a partner of the platform, it provides opportunities for networking, mentoring and being a part of a bigger movement. The 12-month collective programme incorporates all cross-sector organisations from corporate, public sector, universities, local authorities and regional government who financially invest to actively support emerging talent. 

The PoWEr up collective strives for fairness, equity and equality, accelerating gender equality and diversity in the North. It supports and invests in emerging talent, enabling colleagues to give back and pass on skills and delivering on social values.

​Through our partnership with the ‘PoWEr Up Collective’, we’ll be taking part in a range of activities, including webinars, mentoring programmes, podcasts, networking events and awards to ensure opportunities are accessible for all.
