Partners
We work with visionary partners to unlock children’s potential
Our goal:
Empower one million young people to develop the active literacy and oracy skills they need to truly find their voice.
Partner with us to help your brand thrive.
Disengagement in reading, digital distraction and disconnection are having a devastating effect on young people’s mental health and work readiness. Through our news-led education programmes we place brands at the heart of learning experiences that are social, relevant and develop a sense of agency.
BrainWaves
We work with BrainWaves to create and build one of the biggest school-based mental health and wellbeing initiatives for 11-18 year olds in the UK. It’s a long-term research and education collaboration between the University of Oxford (a registered charity), Swansea University and The Day.
“ The Day has been instrumental in the development of BrainWaves and its audience. The team’s innovative approach to education and their expertise in school engagement have delivered results way beyond our expections.”
John Gallacher, Prof. of Cognitive Health, Oxford University
