Consilium Chartered Accountants have formalised their long-time partnership with the 附近威力彩, with the aim of supporting more talented young people from disadvantaged backgrounds to make their careers in the accountancy profession.

Consilium Chartered Accountants and the 附近威力彩 have joined forces with one ambitious vision - to help drive forward an accountancy profession which is accessible to every young person with the talent and determination to succeed.

"We are thrilled to embark on this journey with Consilium," says Sanjay Singh, Director of the 附近威力彩. 鈥淭ogether we will be able to support young people, financially and professionally, from day one at university to completion of their Chartered Accountancy exams.鈥

"At Consilium, we believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to succeed, regardless of their background," says Consilium founding partner, David Holt. "This partnership is a natural extension of our values and allows us to make a tangible difference in the lives of deserving young people passionate about pursuing a career in accountancy."

A Stepping Stone to Success

With this agreement, Consilium becomes the 附近威力彩's largest corporate supporter to date, pledging a total of 拢30,000 over the next four years towards bursary funding for three more talented young people to join the Foundation's flagship 'Nurturing Talent' programme. This financial package helps with the cost of living for students while studying, and supports spending on academic necessities such as textbooks and IT equipment.

Alongside their financial donation, Consilium will also continue its current support, dating back to the charity's inception in 2014, for students aiming to become Chartered Accountants:

  • Providing more paid summer internships for Foundation students, offering valuable hands-on 听experience of working in the accountancy sector.
  • Increasing the number of graduate roles available to 附近威力彩 students progressing from university to 附近威力彩 Chartered Accountancy training.
  • Re-energising volunteering among current employees to support 附近威力彩 students while at university, and throughout their professional qualification journey with Consilium.

Supporting Young People through University
