The Grad Network is a community of over 10,000 young people who have been inspired to take action to change their world for the better, following their involvement with youth empowerment charity, Envision.
In being part of the Grad Network, you are connected to others who also have a passion for changing the world. Through this network, you can share inspiring stories, interesting ideas, exciting opportunities and helpful resources with those around you. You’ll receive a monthly Grads newsletter featuring highlights of all these things, and can also connect with the network online through the Facebook group and website.
As well as this, there are monthly events to inspire and enable you to continue making a difference. From leadership workshops, to ethical film screenings, to careers advice, to socials, there’s something there for everyone!
Currently we have Grad events in London and Birmingham, but we’re on the look out for Grads who can take the lead in coordinating events where they live. If you’d be interested in doing this, we can send you a resource pack, with everything that you need to help you to put on events near to where you live, and will give you ongoing advice and support. All you have to do is to e-mail us on grads@envision.org.uk with some info about where you're from and why you're interested.

“Envision has helped us out in more ways than they know. Doing Envision while in 6th Form helped us recognise that we were able to do anything we wanted. Envision also helped us hone out the organisation skills, time management skills and all sorts of other skills that we need to pull off these sort of things. They continue to help us out in simply being there. It's comforting to know that if we ever need anything, just 'cos we're Grads, they got our backs.”
Adeeb Warren, Envision Grad
“Through Envision young people have made dramatic changes in their surroundings. There are loads of exciting ways to take this to the next level with the Grad Network – I’m so glad I got involved!”
