The EBP runs a diverse programme of events and projects that give young people hands-on insight into working life, while helping schools meet Gatsby Benchmark standards. Its flagship initiatives, including Eastbourne Youth Radio and The BIG Futures Show, bring together thousands of students, educators and employers each year.
Popular programmes include:
-
The BIG Futures Show (BFS)

Young Engineers, Young Chef and Junior Enterprise

In-Bloom competitions and project-based learning

Careers guidance and school-specific delivery
The charity is an active voice in local workforce development through the Eastbourne Strategic Partnership and Youth Partnership. Every programme is designed to enrich teaching, inspire learners and contribute to long-term prosperity through better-prepared students.
Schools, employers and community groups are encouraged to get involved. Eastbourne EBP remains open to new ideas and collaboration opportunities that help shape the workforce of tomorrow.
