O+T Foundation

We’ve seen firsthand the lack of diversity and opportunity within the UK’s real estate industry. For too long, success in property has been too reliant on what school you went to, who your parents knew, where you lived, where you grew up, and what colour skin you might have.

Not any more. The O+T Foundation was set up because we believe every black minority ethnic student should have an equal opportunity to access the real estate profession. Not just through support or big campaigns, but directly; through bursaries, mentorship and paid work experience to help even the most disadvantaged students get the best start.

The O+T Foundation programme supports students directly and proactively — through education, access to real work experience, and, of course, financially — to help give students an unbeatable start to their career in real estate, no matter their background.
