John Rendel, who has won an Unltd Award for Social Entrepreneurship was named in the Courvoisier Future 500 as one of five young leaders in the public and social sectors,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Courvoisier Future 500 )〕 founded Promoting Equality in African Schools (PEAS) in 2004 PEAS has teams in the UK, Uganda and Zambia, working to both raise money (in the UK) and implement the PEAS SmartAid approach.
