Friendship Works improves the wellbeing and life chances of children who face multiple disadvantages. We recruit and train adult volunteer mentors who support children for a minimum of two years. Our mentors take children out three times a month to give them opportunities and positive experiences.

Story

Members of the Colt People & Change team have been tasked with raising as much as possible for the company's chosen charity Friendship Work. We are proposing an afternoon of mental and physical activity where teams of Colt employees register for a chance to win some fantastic prizes! By solving as many cryptic clues as possible participants will be able to find specific Colt manhole covers around London. The team which gets back to the finish line with the most number of visit to manhole covers under their belts will be the winner!

 

Your sponsorship via Just Giving is greatly appreciated. Friendship Works receives no government funding and is entirely reliant on the generosity of its supporters. As the UK’s oldest children’s mentoring charity, Friendship Works provides long term, one-to-one volunteer support to children from disadvantaged and vulnerable families. Each volunteer supports a child by taking them out once a week for 3-4 hours. The minimum time commitment is 2 years but most of the friendships last a great deal longer than this – their aim being to build life-long supportive relationships.  We are asking for your help in supporting our event to help us help Friendship Works make a difference in many more families.
