SWA Architects offers help for young people

Sarah Wigglesworth Architects (SWA) has set out an ongoing structure of support for young people who might face barriers to accessing a career in architecture.

“It is our aim to advocate for inclusivity and diversity with the architectural profession and share our cultural capital with those from under-represented groups,” Wigglesworth said. “To do this, we have committed to a number of initiatives, some of which are part of longstanding relationships/commitments, and some are new collaborations. Specifically we are committed to providing an annual programme that includes: a series of CV reviews, two architectural placements, an annual mentorship and several workshops for both primary and older students/apprentices.”
