Free Resources, Experiences, Events. 〰️

Project FREE is a Leicester-based CIC supporting schools and communities locally, and connecting educators globally through online learning events.

We are an educational resource and service hub, providing long-term and short-term programmes, one-off enrichment events, and regular online learning sessions for educators looking to grow personally and professionally.

Rooted in radical hope, we disrupt the status quo in education to pursue social, racial and educational justice.

The philosophy of bell hooks sits at the heart of our work — we strive towards a future where all educators appreciate that their role is, in her words, "the practice of freedom."

Connect young people locally across ‘perceived differences’ to disrupt divisive thinking and challenge stereotypes.

Contribute to the development of stronger and more interconnected local communities.

Provide young people with opportunities to enhance critical thinking.

Access our carefully curated Anti-Racism Resource Hub for reading recommendations, podcasts, teaching materials, guidance etc
