Xstrata - Our Cornerstone Sponsor

The Founder, Trustees and Staff of 21st Century Legacy are very grateful to all of our supporters.

In particular we wish to acknowledge with great appreciation the exceptionally generous support of Xstrata - the Charity's cornerstone sponsor. Their support enabled us to establish the Charity's operations to reach out across the UK with the Be the Best you can Be! Programme.

Xstrata is a global diversified mining company operating in over 20 countries and employing over 70,000 people. Through Xstrata's corporate social involvement programme, the company supports initiatives for education, health, community development, enterprise and job creation and the environment as well as culture and arts. Xstrata is proud to have supported the Be the Best you can Be! Programme as a unique and challenging initiative that provides an exciting opportunity for young people to discover their full potential.

Mark Sawyer, General Manager, Group Business Development at Xstrata, said:

"Xstrata's global success has been founded on a spirit of entrepreneurship and a belief that people perform best when given the freedom, responsibility and confidence to grow. The same philosophy underpins this charity and its ambitious campaign, which attracted us to support it. We are delighted with the achievements thus far and look forward to the further transformation of a generation of children who we hope will be inspired to be the best they can be."

We are also extremely grateful to Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer LLP and the Royal Mint for being our 'Gold-level' Charity Sponsors.
