EAGLE'S NEST PROJECT
Eagle's Nest Project seeks to provide alternative education solutions for young people who are unable to effectively engage in mainstream education, often as a result of adversity in early childhood. This involves providing mentoring, bespoke 1:1 packages and small group vocational courses, as well as advocating for them to ensure they have opportunities to reach their full potential.
Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
