DEBATE MATE

Debate Mate was founded 15 years ago as a charity, running after-school debate clubs in areas of high child poverty. Since then, we have empowered over 150,000 children worldwide, equipping them with essential skills in communication, leadership, and confidence.

Our unique methodology leverages the principles of competitive debating to foster critical thinking, creativity, resilience, empathy, teamwork, leadership, speaking and listening, problem-solving, and core-confidence.

In 2014, we expanded our impact by launching Debate Mate Training, our corporate communications consultancy. We've partnered with industry leaders such as Deloitte, PWC, HSBC, 10 Downing Street, the Premier League, Hilton, Tesco, Amazon, and Apple, among others.

As AI reshapes our economy, the human skills that Debate Mate champions are more vital than ever.
