The Paul Hamlyn Foundation’s mission is to “help people overcome disadvantage and lack of opportunity, so that they can realise their potential and enjoy fulfilling and creative lives”.
The Foundation places particular focus on supporting both young people and the arts.
The Foundation’s principal strategic aims are to:
o Support imaginative people to nurture exciting ideas;
o Widen access and participation in the arts;
o Improve people’s education and learning through the arts;
o Show that the arts make a difference to people’s lives;
o Support the development and growth of organisations investing in young people and positive change; and
o Improve support for young people who migrate, and strengthen integration so that communities can live well together.
