The William Sharman Podcast for The Travers Foundation

Featuring Terry Forsey

William Sharman hosts his inaugural Podcast for The Travers Foundation by chatting with Terry Forsey, Chairman and Founder of The Travers Foundation.

Terry Forsey is a retired entrepreneur and businessman. He founded The Travers Foundation in 2012. In this Podcast, Terry explains the motivation behind founding this charity and his drive to give back to young people who are disadvantaged by their choice of career. ​

"Life’s not fair for young people trying to make it in sports, performing and creative arts. They are at a tremendous disadvantage. There are no apprenticeships, no student loans, and no workplace training programmes. The only source of funding is family and friends, or nothing. That’s simply unfair, and this is my motivation behind founding The Travers Foundation."
