Emma is the Co-Founder of Prospela, a social enterprise giving underserved young people insights to work-life reality through their own real employee e-mentors. Prospela won the 2018/19 TeachFirst Innovation Award, and was selected by Sir Richard Branson & Steve Wozniak as a “Best Idea – One to Watch” Finalist in the 2018 Talent Unleashed Awards.
Coming from a working class background, Emma has experienced first-hand how such students lack the mindset, confidence & network they need to develop their potential and, having already worked with multiple schools across the UK, is keen to scale up Prospela’s initial successes with Co-Founder Dexter Boyce and support from the Shackleton Foundation.
