Support the Next Generation of Entrepreneurs – Young Enterprise 2026/27

Can you help?
This October, we will be launching our Young Enterprise journey and bringing together a team of students who will have the exciting opportunity to create and run their own business as part of the national Young Enterprise Competition.
Young Enterprise gives students the chance to experience the world of business first-hand. They will develop valuable skills in entrepreneurship, teamwork, leadership, communication, problem-solving, financial planning and marketing as they take their ideas from concept to reality.
To help our students make the most of this fantastic opportunity, we are looking for support from local businesses and organisations who would like to invest in young people and help nurture the entrepreneurs of tomorrow.
Sponsorship will help cover essential costs such as competition entry fees, resources, materials, product development and marketing. By supporting our Young Enterprise team, you will be directly contributing to the development of students’ confidence, creativity and employability skills.
We would love to build partnerships with local businesses who share our passion for inspiring young people and helping them gain experiences that will benefit them beyond the classroom.
Whether through financial sponsorship, mentoring, resources or other forms of support, your involvement could make a real difference to our students’ journey.
Each team would be just under £600 to sponsor - we usually have 2 teams.
If your organisation would like to support our Young Enterprise team or find out more about sponsorship opportunities, please contact fundraising@balcarras.gloucs.sch.uk
