About us

Hull and East Yorkshire (HEY) Children’s University is a charity that strives to provide primary school children living in the most deprived areas across the region with unique learning experiences, that many wouldn’t have the opportunity to experience otherwise. Through our specially designed learning experiences, children are encouraged to believe in themselves, learn new skills to help them succeed in the future and open their eyes to every path that they could take. We inspire dreams for their futures, as many don’t have any.

Many children around Hull and the East Riding do not have the same opportunities that other children in the U.K have. Many have never been much further than the street in which they live, and some will never visit another city until they reach adulthood. HEY Chilren's University works to change that, inspiring Hull’s future to achieve great things, no matter what that dream may be and regardless of what circumstances they were born in to.
