Future Council

The Future Council was established in 2022 to give young people working in the chemical supply chain an opportunity to build connections with their peers.

At the core of Future Council is our founding objectives:

• Provide a network for young people in the chemical supply chain to share ideas, knowledge and experiences, and to learn from each other.

• Raise awareness of the different roles, skillsets and careers within the industry through partaking in outreach with young people and the wider public.

• Build the confidence of its members by providing opportunities to develop personally and professionally.

Since it’s induction, members of the future council have shared their career stories with thousands of school children across the UK, inspiring the next generation of our sector’s workforce.

Activity has included speaking at the Catalyst Science Discovery Centre’s ‘Chemistry At Work Week’, Stockton Council’s ‘Chemical Supply Chain Open Event’ and Kingston University’s ‘Careers Festival’.

The group meet regularly to review activities and share new ideas.
