To advance in life and relieve the needs of young people between the ages of 16–18 who are socially and economically disadvantaged, primarily through:

## **Our Vision and Mission**
In2MedSchool is a widening participation organisation that provides free mentorship, resources, and support for children across the UK aspiring to study Medicine and healthcare-related degrees.
Our mission is to provide a support network for students from widening participation backgrounds who aim to study medicine and reach university by providing regular mentoring, numerous resources and enrichment opportunities to:
1. Drive their personal development
2. Ensure they make the right career choices
3. Empower them to see their potential
We remain committed to eliminating barriers faced by students from widening participation backgrounds and shaping a healthcare workforce that represents the communities it serves.
## **Trustee Recruitment**
The charity trustees were appointed based on the skills, knowledge, and experience essential for the effective governance of In2MedSchool. All prospective trustees are reviewed by the current Board to ensure alignment with the charity’s values and mission.
## **Chair of the Board of Trustees Report**
Over the 2023–2024 academic year, In2MedSchool has continued its momentum, demonstrating innovation, adaptability, and commitment to our vision. The guidance and dedication of our trustees, directors, and volunteers have been vital in navigating this period of continued growth.
As always, the strength of our community lies in its people—mentees, mentors, volunteers, and supporters. Our mission to improve access to medical education for underrepresented students remains more relevant than ever. It is a privilege to support and witness the journeys of so many dedicated students.
Looking ahead, we aim to strengthen the infrastructure that supports our work and explore new ways to reach more young people. Thank you for being part of this shared effort to transform lives through opportunity.

## **Trustees’ Report**
This year has seen In2MedSchool deepen its impact and refine its operations. With increasing interest in our programmes, we have prioritised accessibility, sustainability, and meaningful engagement.
Since becoming a registered charity, we have worked to ensure our growth remains mission-aligned. Our network of mentors, school partners, and volunteers continues to grow, and with it, our potential to support more students on their journey into medicine.
## **Key Programme Highlights**
## 1. Mentorship Programme
Our flagship mentoring scheme continues to offer tailored guidance to students from widening participation backgrounds. Mentors, many of whom are medical students or doctors, have supported mentees in areas including personal statements, interview skills, and university preparation.
## 2. Events Programme
A range of webinars, in-person workshops, and conferences were delivered to support aspiring healthcare students. These events focused on enhancing access to knowledge, skills, and networks critical to a successful medical school application.
## 3. Acceleration Programme
This initiative continues to engage with disadvantaged communities through school outreach, interactive sessions, and competitions. It aims to raise awareness about medicine as a career and encourage students to consider it as a realistic option.
## 4. School Engagement Programme
The official rollout of this programme enabled us to visit schools across the UK and speak directly with students and staff about careers in medicine and allied health professions. Sessions have included presentations, careers fairs, and informal Q\&As.
## 5. Ambassadors Programme
The Ambassadors Programme focused on two main goals: increasing access to healthcare-related work experience and delivering educational resources to support students’ medical school applications. We continued to explore opportunities with NHS Trusts, care providers, and other organisations to improve placements.
## 6. Academia
Our academia team has contributed to resource development and delivery of webinars and courses to support UCAT preparation, personal statements, and interview skills. We continue to assess how best to equip students academically for the challenges of applying to medicine.
## 7. Scottish Charity Status
Following our successful registration as a charity in Scotland, we have continued to strengthen our engagement in Scottish regions. This includes developing new school partnerships and exploring local funding opportunities.
## **Financial Highlights**
Our finances remain stable, allowing us to sustain our programmes and build capacity for future growth. Our fundraising efforts and donations have enabled us to continue delivering services free of charge to students. A detailed financial breakdown can be found in our official Accounts and Annual Return.
Governance and Future Plans
The Board of Trustees remains actively engaged in strategic oversight and compliance. We have upheld standards in financial transparency, risk management, and safeguarding. As we look to the future, we aim to:
- Expand our mentor training and support systems
- Reach more schools through the School Engagement Programme
- Strengthen ties with medical schools and professional bodies
- Launch new digital tools to improve access and engagement
## **Appreciation and Thanks**
We offer heartfelt thanks to our volunteers, mentors, donors, and partners. Your time, expertise, and generosity are the foundation of everything we do. Without you, none of this would be possible.
To the schools, universities, and organisations who collaborate with us: thank you for helping us build a more equitable future in healthcare.
We remain committed to ensuring that every student, regardless of background, has the opportunity to pursue a career in medicine.
