Your grant of £3,500 will fund the Savvy & Successful Project, which will empower 70 young people to escape the cycle of poverty and make a new life for themselves. The project Savvy & Successful will teach these young people to make success of themselves on their own merits, regardless of what happens at home. It will empower them with the knowledge that they deserve, employment opportunities so they can succeed. On behalf of our staff and users, we express our deep appreciation for partnering in empowering young people to succeed.

I am writing to thank you for your very generous support of £1,081 to fund the work of the Ormiston Families’ YouCanBe project in Norwich. We are incredibly grateful for your support, which will make a huge difference to the lives of the young women we work with to improve their self-esteem, relationships, and sexual and reproductive health.

Our client was really blown away by the support. He feels like a weight has been lifted. His neighbour, who picks up food for him, says he looks 10 years younger because of the easing of stress by the fuel grant.

This is amazing!  I really don’t know what to say.  It will help my son to pursue his career without the worry of how he’s getting to college.

On behalf of the students, staff and customers at The Royal National College for the Blind (RNC) and thePoint4, please accept our deep appreciation for your very generous grant of £3,000. The grant will go towards the purchase of a pair of team shelters for use adjacent to the astro pitch – a much requested improvement, particularly by the coaches of local community football teams. We are most appreciative of your continued support.

Thank you so much for your generous funding of our trip to Hay Festival…it meant that we could take extra staff to take some of the pressure off crowd-managing the students.  We were able to take nearly 90 students and they described it as  ‘the best day ever!’.
