Story

Thanks for wanting to make a contribution to the download of Christmas is for Life, not just for Christmas. Any size of donation is welcome, but if you want an idea the record would sell for around £6.

All monies raised will go to Southampton Action For Employment (SAFE). SAFE started in 1994, reaching out to people in South Hampshire facing need as a result of high unemployment and recession. Sound familiar?

The programme boasts a 75% progression rate into further education or employment - an incredible achievement when you take into account the fact that SAFE are working with the hardest to reach, most excluded people - most of whom suffer from a chronic lack of self esteem, isolation and lack of motivation.

SAFE's work is so worth supporting because they are not just helping out people who are already in trouble, but empowering them to reach their full potential. So, in years to come, they will no longer need help, but be helping society themselves!

I've been on two courses myself, as a participant and a trainer, and I've not only seen them sparking others into life, but they've been life changing for me!  So please give generously- your money really will be buying something for life, not just for christmas.
