Absolutely WONDERFUL to see a student from @officialRPHS at the AGM for Jigsaw4U, due to their work raising money and awareness for the charity on the @FirstGiveUK programme. We're proud of how the programme brings together charities, schools and individuals in a genuine way.

Thank you to everyone who have helped make this year our most impactful yet for our children, young people and families. And a massive well done to the Stars of 2024 🧩🌟 #AGM #ChildrensCharity #YoungPeoplesMentalHealth #FamilyTherapySupport #SWLondon

they're often the ones involved, but also desperately want to see it stop. This year, LNK won five times, receiving £5,000 from First Give for their amazing work. This doesn't count how many classes have chosen to support them but not quite won the First Give Grant. @LNKcharity

Lives Not Knives works with high risk young people to prevent gang crime and violence. Year on year, gang violence/knife crime is one of the top 3 social issues the young people we work with choose to tackle (all over the UK). It's an issue that means a lot to young people...

🔪 40,000 knife crime offences were committed in the UK in 2018... a number that keeps rising. 67 were fatal in 2019. 🔪 First Give are doing a team 16km walk from London Bridge to the LNK head office in Croydon. Please donate to a very worthy cause: lnkd.in/eqQ3v-7w

7-CZ-1B had a visit from some furry friends today! Val & Chris who volunteer for Guide Dogs (71B's chosen charity) spoke to us about how life changing the charity is for the visually impaired & brought the adorable (and very well behaved) Jaeger and Laila with them! @FirstGiveuk

It was fab to host the Programmes Team Day yesterday, where we focused on looking at programme and resource updates for 24/25. As always, we did this by combining our insights from valuable conversations with teachers, as well as the teacher feedback form finished programmes.

Here's the team looking ✨DELIGHTFUL✨ as we gathered yesterday for the Programmes team to work on things we can do to improve the programme and the support we offer teachers! SO nice to see everyone together 👋👋👋 #Team

This groups' presentation was fantastic last night! Also, great to hear they met a representative from the charity, thank you @SaferLondon1 for supporting these young people to support you 👏
Ark Acton Academy@ArkActonAcademy

As part of the @FirstGiveUK Project, Y9s hosted a bake sale to raise money for their chosen charity @SaferLondon1 . This empowered them to take positive action for a cause they care about and ignited a spark of social conscience #arkactonacademy, #westlondon, #londonschools
