Grit specialises in personal development programmes that aim to create breakthroughs in how participants see themselves and the world.
This programme has been created to help our students to understand how their strengths and passions can be used to achieve, thrive and lead.
Through a series of intensive workshops, students will explore their identity, increase their confidence and gain leadership and advocacy skills.
There is also the opportunity to connect with other students of Black heritage to grow your community at university and discuss your experiences in a safe space facilitated by Black trainers.
"Participating in the Black Leadership Programme challenged and reshaped my understanding of leadership, life, and the Black experience."
"The Grit workshop served as a catalyst for self-discovery, empowering me to take ownership of my narrative and embrace my innate power."
"You have all the tools you need to discover who you are and to feel like you belong, and this is what Grit reminds you of."
