ABOUT US

ADventure is part of the Brixton Finishing School family – a not-for-profit founded with a mission to build an equitable super highway into the Creative, Media, Marketing and Tech industries – and improve the early years experience for people from under-represented communities.

ADventure exists to inspire and encourage more 14-19 year olds from underrepresented backgrounds to consider a career in the creative industries. And our message is simple – the creative industries have a job for you.

We partner with schools, youth organisations, learning providers and a whole range of amazing industry partners and volunteers, to provide speaker talks and workshops for schools, mentoring and employment opportunities for students, and industry-relevant learning content and resources.
