Editor's Notes
- #2: Wherever you’ve come from, good morning and welcome to Team Up! As our committee leaders, you have chosen to take on the challenge of developing your skills, and applying and enhancing those in the best possible way – in aid of helping to improve social mobility and inspire young people. The idea that none of us should be restricted from getting where we want to be by any factor other than our own efforts – sounds so simple! But how many people go out and do something about it?
