ServicesCity Gateway works with disadvantaged individuals through community events, drop-in youth clubs and apprenticeship schemes, and gives them the chance to develop their own business ideas. It runs women’s projects, youth training, a youth centre and a social enterprise hub.[2] It is one of the most popular youth projects in the area, and has successfully trained many young people who were formerly not in employment, education or training ("NEETs").[2] City Gateway's support for young people was described as "incredible" following several awards at the ERDF and ESF London Awards 2011.[3] {{As of|2012}} it employs 120 people,[5] and has about 60 corporate partners who provide apprenticeships, work experience or mentors.[6]HistoryCity Gateway was established by a group of people who worked in the City of London and wanted to support the local community. In 2003 it was a small organisation on the point of being wound up when Eddie Stride, a local man who had recently graduated from Cambridge University, joined as a youth outreach worker. Having secured approval from the trustees to keep it going for a year, he raised £40,000 from two corporate sponsors, and began training 15 "NEETs" in job-seeking skills. He was shortly promoted to CEO; by 2008 he had developed the organisation into one with an annual turnover of £1 million,[2] reaching £4.5 million by 2012.[4] In July 2012 City Gateway won the Prime Minister's Big Society Award.[5] The Evening Standard selected City Gateway as the partner in its "Ladder for London" campaign, launched in September 2012, asking commercial companies to take on more apprentices.[6][7] References1. ^{{cite news|url=http://business.timesonline.co.uk/tol/business/career_and_jobs/article7043535.ece |title=The City slickers sharing talent |newspaper=The Times |date=28 February 2010 |accessdate=26 September 2012 }} 2. ^1 {{cite news|title=In east London – a model which could transform society|url=http://www.newstatesman.com/uk-politics/2008/08/city-gateway-project-centre|accessdate=27 September 2012|newspaper=New Statesman|date=14 August 2008|author=Alyssa McDonald}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=ESF project inspires Evening Standard apprenticeships campaign|url=http://www.esf-works.com/resources/news/324-esf-project-inspires-evening-standard-apprenticeships-campaign-|work=ESF Works|publisher=European Social Fund|accessdate=27 September 2012|date=26 September 2012}} 4. ^{{cite news|title=Human dynamo who turns young tearaways into valued City workers|url=https://www.standard.co.uk/news/work/human-dynamo-who-turns-young-tearaways-into-valued-city-workers-8167448.html?origin=internalSearch|accessdate=26 September 2012|newspaper=Evening Standard|date=24 September 2012|author=David Cohen}} 5. ^1 {{cite web|title=Tower Hamlets charity City Gateway wins Prime Ministers Big Society Award|url=http://www.number10.gov.uk/news/city-gateway-big-society-award/|work=number10.gov.uk|date=19 July 2012|accessdate=26 September 2012}} 6. ^1 {{cite news|title=Ladder for London: The Evening Standard's campaign to help the young and unemployed|url=https://www.standard.co.uk/news/work/ladder-for-london-the-evening-standards-campaign-to-help-the-young-and-unemployed-8167606.html|accessdate=26 September 2012|newspaper=Evening Standard|date=24 September 2012|author=David Cohen}} 7. ^1 {{cite news|title=Evening Standard partners with London charity to increase apprenticeships|url=http://www.civilsociety.co.uk/governance/news/content/13434/standard_partners_with_london_charity_to_increase_apprenticeships|accessdate=26 September 2012|newspaper=Civil Society|date=25 September 2012|author=Kirsty Weakley}} External links
