Aspiring Dreams CIC is a non-profit Community Interest Company (CIC) committed to empowering and supporting marginalized groups, particularly those from forced migration backgrounds, to achieve their full potential in education and employment.
Our mission is to equip individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds with the skills and opportunities needed to build a fulfilling life in the UK. We focus on breaking down barriers—whether socioeconomic, migratory, or systemic—that hinder progress and success.
At Aspiring Dreams, we believe that everyone deserves an equal opportunity to succeed, regardless of their circumstances. Through interactive programs and tailored support, we help individuals develop the confidence, skills, and knowledge necessary to advance in both education and their careers. By employing a range of approaches, we strive to create meaningful pathways for personal and professional growth.
Our Business Philosophy
The business aims to work with individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds, especially from asylum-seeking, refugee, limited leave to remain, and humanitarian protection backgrounds. It involves working with other marginalised-focused organisations, that aim to support individuals who have faced difficult challenges in accessing education or employment, for reasons related to their immigration status or academic level.
