Story

The Willow Nursery, where I work, has been fund raising for Carney's Community for the past couple of years. Carney's is based in Battersea and is a charity which helps vulnerable young people and young offenders find direction and guidance through providing 1:1 mentoring and the use of a boxing gym, which improves their confidence and self-esteem. Many of those that come to Carney's face issues relating to offending, gang involvement, drug and alcohol misuse, poor physical health, and lack of family support. Carney's supports them to get fit, get out of crime and gang activity, do something fun, gain education and employment and benefit from the positivity of the Carney's community.  When successful, these young people become mentors for others who need support and help.  If you would like more information about the great work they do please follow this link www.carneyscommunity.org
