THE TALENT TAP 2020/2021 – Social Impact Report & Financial Statements
THE TALENT TAP – TALENT IS EVERYWHERE, OPPORTUNITY IS NOT
CEO REPORT
Covid-19 has made the need for The Talent Tap even greater. The education and opportunities of the UK’s most vulnerable students have been damaged by Covid far more than their privileged counterparts against whom they will be competing for jobs. Recent research by the Sutton Trust has shown that only 18% of 2020 Graduates were likely to secure jobs compared to 60% in previous years. Those at an advantage are those with networks and finances to support their job search. Geographic isolation and economic instability are leaving the less advantaged students behind.
These students and graduates need more support than ever before to compete on a level playing field – and this is where we come in.
Our statistics speak for themselves:
-
22 Schools (120% increase from 2019).
-
125 current students (250% increase from 2019).
-
100+ hours mentoring delivered and a successful Career Mentoring Programme underway.
-
Monthly Careers webinars, which we call “Zoominars”.
-
6000+ reach to 6th Form students through Zoominar Programme.
Importantly, we have LEARNED a great deal from the pandemic and from our virtual way of working. We understand that as an organisation we need to access the students earlier in their schooling – to give us the opportunity to show them the future that they have the ability to achieve - then give them the
tools and support to do this. We are interviewing students to join our programme at the end of Year 12 and giving them access to mentoring at the start of Year 13. This will enable us to support them in their university decisions, applications and offer them advice on other opportunities.
One POSITIVE that has come from the pandemic is that Social Mobility has been rightly moved higher up the agenda. We have seen an increase in businesses coming to us to support their ESG initiatives and actively seeking to engage in our cause.
We are working hard to capitalise on this and have created a “package” that we can offer our business partners which includes; volunteering opportunities, fundraising ideas and the ability to host Zoominars alongside facilitating the delivery of work experience.
After years of rapid growth, 2021/22 will be all about consolidation of our offering. We have firm foundations to work from, so, our focus will be on two main areas, Mentoring and Mental Health.
Mentoring has been a huge driver for The Talent Tap to increase the level of support to our students and alumni. 60% of our students placed networking as their top priority, whilst 33% stated increasing confidence as their main aim. This corroborates our belief that Mentoring and one to one provision is highly beneficial to our students. The support of our corporate partner volunteers has been game
changing, and we were able to deliver our first 10 week mentoring programme, supported by 15 mentors delivering 100+ hours of one to one support. We have had fantastic feedback from the sessions, and the learnings we have made have enabled us to move forward with our plan to invest in Mentoring programme software to streamline our provision. This will go live in November 2021.
The pandemic has had a devastating effect on mental health and many of our students have been adversely affected and shared their stories with the team. 73% of returning students said that the pandemic had affected their mental health, with 25% admitting that they had considered dropping out of university, and had actively sought support. We have been working with a wellbeing consultant to support our students and are delivering an organised programme of support for 2021/22.
2022 has so much to offer, the return of live events will allow fundraising to be even more collaborative and engaging. We will also welcome back our residential city based programmes. Exciting times ahead.

THE TALENT TAP
Established as a charity since 2018, The Talent Tap is a high performing organisation making a real difference to the lives of young people experiencing poor social mobility in predominantly rural and coastal communities across the country.
Our Mission has been to reach out to talented school leavers from social mobility cold spots offering them the training, work experience, networks and confidence they need to succeed.
Our Goal is equal access to professional jobs for young people, regardless of socio-economic background.
Why is the work of The Talent Tap so necessary? Talent is Everywhere, Opportunity is Not
A recent Commons Select Committee Report (2021) concluded that ‘Forgotten’ working-class pupils were let down by decades of neglect owing to:
-
Persistent and multigenerational disadvantage
-
Place-based factors, including regional economics and underinvestment
-
Family experience of education
-
A lack of social capital
The UK has one of the poorest rates of social mobility in the developed world meaning that people born into low-income families regardless of their talent or their hard work, do not have the same access to opportunities as those born into more privileged circumstances. The impact of Covid-19 is threatening to make these factors worse.
- Today, you are still 60% more likely to be in a professional job if you were from a privileged background rather than a working-class background.
State of The Nation 2021: Social Mobility and the Pandemic (July 2021).
- Whilst only 7% of the population attend independent and grammar schools; 44% British Media columnists, 65% Senior Judges and 44% of the Civil Service attended independent schools.
Elitist Britain 2019: The Sutton Trust / Social Mobility Commission.
- Socioeconomically disadvantaged students from SOCIAL MOBILTY COLDSPOTS have ½ the earning potential as those from geographic hotspots.

Demand for our support is high and schools and students are given access to our programmes if they are located or reside in areas that appear in the bottom 40% of the SMIC (Social Mobility Index by Constituency).
SCHOOL CRITERIA:
The school must be:
Situated in a constituency that falls into the bottom 40% of the Social Mobility Index by Constituency.
This can be based on the overall measure OR the school measure OR the youth measure.
AND/OR
Have 20% or more of its pupils eligible for Free School Meals (“FSM”).
These criteria result in TTT working predominantly with schools situated in rural or coastal communities, rather than in citybased locations.

As a relatively new charity, many of our students are still moving through our sustained programme. Recent programme evaluation reports inform us that we are combating the four key barriers these young people face:
“Without the Talent Tap, I would not have been able to focus my career aspirations quickly enough to look for relevant work experience. I would also not have met all the brilliant people who have offered me jobs and insights into their companies” (2015 Talent Tap student) – Job offer from RailPen Investments
“The Talent Tap has given me confidence to grow as a person and grow my experience. Without the opportunities they gave me, I would never have got my experience at London Fashion Week and my job at Blonstein” (2017 Talent Tap student)
– Job offer from Blonstein

CHAMPIONING EQUAL ACCESS TO EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES THROUGH OUR PARTNERS
Working with our employer partners to offer work experience and opportunities is The Talent Tap’s life blood. For our students it is their main insight into what they can aspire to, and a gateway to their future. It is also hugely beneficial for the providers to access a diverse talent pool.
HR teams value the opportunity to attract and meet talented future graduates, CSR and D&I teams have the chance to champion their social mobility and diversity mission, enhance the lives of our students, support a relevant charity AND meet and learn from a young, diverse, forward thinking future workforce.
Some of the partners we are lucky to work with:

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
Statement of Trustees' responsibilities
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England & Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102);
-
make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the Trust Deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
