NG Chartered Surveyors recognised for inspiring the next generation of property professionals

NG Chartered Surveyors has been recognised for its commitment to supporting young people after being shortlisted in the Small Business, Big Impact Award at the East Midlands Combined County Authority (EMCCA) awards.

The nomination celebrates NG’s long-standing partnership with The Garibaldi School in Mansfield, where the firm has worked closely with staff and students to provide careers guidance, mentoring and meaningful workplace opportunities.

Over several years, NG has supported the school’s careers programme through a wide range of initiatives, including year-group careers events, work experience placements, mentoring and employability activities. The firm’s team has also played an active role in helping students develop a better understanding of the world of work and the opportunities available within the property sector and wider business community.

The award recognises organisations that demonstrate an outstanding commitment to supporting young people through innovation, mentoring and meaningful employer engagement.

Julia Matthews, EMCCA’s lead contact for NG Chartered Surveyors, said: “Their impact is evident in student voice, with young people describing NG as a true ‘guardian angel’ in supporting their future pathways.”

Jude Weston, who leads the relationship between NG Chartered Surveyors and The Garibaldi School, added: “It is always a pleasure to support and be involved with the Academy. The staff are incredibly engaged and committed to giving their students the very best opportunities.

“Every student we’ve met has been inspiring, and it’s an honour for us to play a small part in helping them prepare for the world of work. As a business, we believe it’s important to invest in the next generation by providing real experiences, practical advice, and the confidence to explore future career opportunities.”

For NG Chartered Surveyors, supporting local schools and developing future talent remains an important part of its commitment to the communities in which it operates, helping to bridge the gap between education and employment across the East Midlands.
