Daniel Snell founded Arrival Education after his friend's 17-year-old brother was stabbed and killed five years ago. Daniel quit his job at US conglomerate Southwestern and set up a social enterprise that he hopes will "stop young people killing each other".

Along with partner Emily Shenton, the pair run a four year talent development programme for young people from inner-city communities that builds on the best of corporate leadership development and brokers mentors for young leaders from corporate backgrounds.

Emily and Daniel came to the Learning Launchpad with the concept and their research in July 2007. They secured £25,000 of financial sup port and regular meetings to help develop the programme.

Emily says "Learning Launchpad took us from concept to a successful pilot. Their insight into how we could address the social need made all the difference - and has meant that we have made a life-changing difference to our students".

Arrival Education has completed five of its courses in 2008 for 100 students from across London and the south-east. 50 students are now developing their 'Success Skills' in partnership with some of the UK's leading organisations. In 2009 they are working with 300 students, and aim to work with 2000 students in 2013.
