Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Myself and Jack gained ballot places, so we were able to choose a charity we wished to support. We have chosen 'The Who Cares? Trust', to raise awareness and money for. We have been involved in the care system and have seen the massive need to give help to those leaving the care system. 

Can you imagine hearing those words 'You are on your own' at just sixteen years old! For many young people in the care system, these are the words they hear. That's where 'The Who Cares? Trust' comes in, they offer workshops, advice and support to those who desperately need it. This group is often forgotten and abandonded by government and society. So It's no wonder the stats are shocking. 

It won't be easy for either of us so please help and support us, so we can continue to support this fantastic and essential charity.  

Take a look at our training video on YouTube.. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vFRZTDyfQHc
