Charity overview

Activities - how the charity spends its money

Sour Lemons addresses the lack of social mobility and diversity in leadership roles. We do this by delivering creative leadership programmes for young leaders from diverse backgrounds, alongside consultancy and bespoke design services for creative organisations. At the heart of Sour Lemons is the belief that any disadvantage in life can become an advantage; any sour lemon can become lemonade.
