The trust is jointly led by its founder, Sir Steve Lancashire and Libby Nicholas, an experienced national education leader.

Designate CEO of Reach4, Libby Nicholas said: “We are absolutely delighted with the response we have had in the South Yorkshire area. Our commitment is to delivering ‘inspiration beyond measure’.”

She continued: “This means helping children and young people develop and explore who they are and what they are capable of, through arts, sports, leadership opportunities, enrichment and community.”
