We train young people to maximise their opportunities in the creative industries, empowering them & setting them up for future success. Training is offered at no cost to participants, so we need support finding new funding sources.
Reprezent is always over-subscribed. Recently the inequalities and lack of opportunities have greatly increased , with demand for our services growing exponentially. Our last summer training (30 places) received 900 new applicants in the first 2 weeks. We now have over 3000 young people active on our waiting lists.
To meet this demand, we are expanding training, introducing new qualifications, and enhancing services to support local creative talent.
We’ve secured an industry-leading funding strategist and need an experienced bid writer to secure further resources for our beneficiaries.
Recent output:
With increased funding, we can transform more lives and strengthen London’s cultural ecology.
We seek an experienced bid writer to support our fundraising strategy lead and our executive team. You’ll identify elements in our programs that align with funders' criteria and ideally bring existing contacts to help secure sustainable, long-term funding.
Reprezent has grown over 20 years from a small radio project in Peckham to a London-wide youth station collaborating with top institutions (UAL, The Princes' Trust, Tate) and global brands (Nike, Adidas, Apple, Converse).
Known as the birthplace of stars like Sherelle, Stormzy, Munya Chawawa, Jamz Supernova, Novelist, Kenny Allstar, etc, etc. Reprezent is publicly seen as a hub for emerging talent.
That’s the public persona that we want the audience to see. Behind the scenes, it supports young people from diverse, often challenging backgrounds, including care leavers, the homeless, and those with mental health needs.
With increased funding, Reprezent aims to reach tens of thousands more listeners and participants, transforming lives, the economy, and the British music scene.
