Welcome from the Chair
Our passion, commitment and drive to improve people's lives over the past two decades, in everything that we do, is what has turned A4e into the successful international organisation it is today.

Welcome from the Chair

A very warm welcome to A4e.


I founded A4e in 1986 because I wanted to provide training and job opportunities for the people made unemployed by the closures of the steel works in Sheffield, a city in the UK that at the time was largely dependent on the industry. I wanted to be part of a company that made a difference to people's lives, and from these humble origins we have built a company that now helps thousands of people across the world.

We pride ourselves in helping people and organisations access high quality training, employment and advice, doing whatever we can to drive social change and provide opportunity. We do things the right way, not the easy way. Doing well by doing good.

I'm proud to lead an organisation that helps so many people in so many ways and really does improve people's lives.

Best wishes,

Emma Harrison
