Story
Thank you for visiting our Just
Giving page.
We are very much looking forward
to celebrating our wedding and hope that you will be able to join us. Although
it is your presence we would like most, we are conscious that many people like
to give gifts and so in place of a wedding list we have decided to support a charity.
Springboard for Children provides a literacy
lifeline for children with learning difficulties in inner city primary schools,
primarily in Lambeth, Southwark, Lewisham and Islington. Sadly, around 35,000
children a year will leave primary school aged 11 unable to read or write. Springboard provides tutors to children
identified as requiring one to one assistance, helping them build on their
literacy skills and giving them confidence to continue their education. We
chose Springboard because we wanted
to support a charity that gives children a better start in life.
Our target of £5000 will enable at
least 6 children in reaching their literacy potential, Of course we are hopeful
that we will achieve our target, but any donation will be greatly appreciated
by Springboard and the children it
supports.
Donating through Just Giving is simple, fast and totally secure. They will never sell your details on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, Just Giving will make sure your money is sent directly to the charity and Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer.
Thank you again for visiting our page, we hope you agree Springboard is a worthy cause for your donations in celebration of our wedding.
