BURTON ALBION COMMUNITY TRUST AND MPWR GROUP ANNOUNCE NEW PARTNERSHIP TO STRENGTHEN MENTORING SUPPORT FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

Burton Albion Community Trust (BACT) and MPWR Group are pleased to announce a new partnership designed to enhance mentoring provision for young people across Burton and the surrounding areas.

The collaboration will focus on strengthening mentoring delivery within BACT’s diverse programmes, alternative education provision, and wider youth engagement services.

By combining BACT’s strong community presence with MPWR Group’s expertise in mentoring and personal development, the partnership aims to provide young people with high-quality guidance, positive role models, and tailored support to help them thrive.

The partnership will also explore further joint initiatives in the future, with both organisations committed to developing long-term, impactful opportunities for young people in the community.

Dannii Fulford, Founder and CEO of MPWR Group, said: “We are really excited about the partnership between MPWR Group & BACT, with a number of really impactful projects already in development as part of the collaboration. Having grown up in Burton, I am personally very passionate about the opportunities we will be offering alongside BACT to children, young people and families within the local area. This collaboration will help to tighten the gaps and reach those who may otherwise be unable to access such vital support and prevention.”

Ben Webster, Programmes Manager at Burton Albion Community Trust, added: “Our work is centred around improving lives and raising aspirations. This partnership with MPWR Group strengthens our ability to connect young people with inspiring mentors who can help guide them through challenges, opportunities and important life decisions. We are delighted to begin this collaborative journey.”

The partnership launches immediately, with mentoring activity already in development across several BACT programmes.
