Author Profile

The Life Project CIC was set up in September 2006 with a mission to provide practical, interactive tools for managing life choices, life style and life direction.

We work across the corporate, education and public sectors, coaching people and providing high quality services that improve the focus, productivity and wellbeing of adults and young people across the UK.

Within the next three years, we intend to use our profits to offer grants to other social entrepreneurs and to develop a life skills centre. We will bring our life coaching courses into the Sussex countryside so young people and communities can come to reflect, explore and grow.

We believe that the earlier people learn to understand who they are and how they work, the better their chances of creating a successful life. Click to find out more about our products and services for under 25's.
