Migrant Leaders Celebrates the Success of Mentees
We celebrate the countless successes of our Mentees and the deserving young people we work with. Among the many success stories 3 examples stand out:
Congratulations to Wasifa on receiving an offer to study medicine at UCL:
“This development programme and my mentor have given me opportunities by visiting the UCL campus with me before my interview where my mentor graduated from herself and she did a mock interview with me which led to UCL offering me a place. She even worked with Migrant Leaders to arrange for an afternoon of talks by doctors from different specialities including the first female black orthopaedic surgeon appointed in the UK who was born in Guyana. The Migrant Leaders special development programme has made me realise I can achieve my dream of helping people and developing countries through my career in medicine.”

Migrant Leaders Delivers Its First ‘Connect Conference’
This conference helps our Young Mentees imagine a future without barriers. We achieve this by bringing together our Mentees and Mentors in this conference with an exciting agenda of speakers, discussion panel, Q&A and networking session. Our Mentees gain an opportunity to speak directly with multiple Mentors from a wide range of companies and technical fields. Importantly, they gain exposure and feel comfortable with imagining a future at these companies.

Sharing Stories of Relatable Role Models with Young People
"It was a pleasure to be interviewed by Rene Carayol MBE. The interview proved to be a time for reflection and an opportunity to say to the next generation of diverse talent that there are different paths to success. To show that there are role models they can relate to and that the obstacles are part of the path. We only need to be willing to continually learn, succeed with integrity and to help others. Thank you, Rene, for your huge contributions to inclusion and leadership."

Migrant Leaders and Anglo American Partnership Delivers the First ‘Access to Corporates’ Conference
This valuable conference represents our first co-developed event with one of our key corporate sponsors Anglo American. Our Access to Corporates Programme seeks to bring to our Mentees insights and connections to large corporates as well as leading quality work experiences across a number of sectors. The feedback from our Mentees on this initial Access to Corporates conference has been phenomenal, with our Mentees expressing that they would not have otherwise gained such a life time opportunity, which they so deserve.
