Who we are and what we do
Aimhigher MKOB is part of a national, government funded project, which supports and encourages young people and adults, with potential and who are from under-represented groups, to consider and progress to higher education.
We work in partnership with a variety of organisations through structured programmes of events and activities to raise awareness of and aspirations to higher education and to boost attainment.
