'Talent is everywhere; opportunity is not'

The latest episode of the FT Adviser Editor's Podcast focuses on a few words: Talent is everywhere, opportunities are not. This is wording taken from the mission statement of youth empowerment charity Urban Synergy. Founded in 2007, the charity has helped more than  20,000 young people aged between 9 and 24 years to reach their full potential. Chief executive and founder Leila Thomas talks to Simoney Kyriakou about the opportunities that financial services companies have to help create diversity in the City.
