Story

“I have just watched the whole video! Is there anything you guys can’t pull off with style and finesse, It’s really beautifully put together.”

Liz Healey, Assistant Headteacher, Tytherington High School

During lockdown we wanted to support high schools Nationally and Internationally by creating and giving them FREE weekly bitesize PSHE lessons with a God centred message of Hope. 

‘The Message Today’ resource tackles the hot topics that young people are facing during this global pandemic. The sessions will promote character development as well as build resilience and develop pupil’s self-knowledge, self-esteem and self-confidence.

So far we have delivered sessions on Wellbeing and Resilience, Prejudice & Discrimination, Love and HOPE. Why not take a look now?

We are planning on delivering 13 more episodes over a 3 month period, each one costing around £1k to produce. So we need to raise £13k. Since this is a lot of money this fundraiser needed to 'hurt and cost' me and I HATE running so here it goes... I will run 13km to raise £13k every week for 3 weeks starting 1st September 2020 representing the 3 months of filming.

We will be looking at topics like Identity, Forgiveness, Relationships, Mental Health, Abusive behaviour and many more.

Our dream is to not only to inform, equip and empower our young people to make good choices but God choices too. Then introduce them to our YouTube channel The Message Trust 'Message LIVE' so that they can connect with our bands in the evenings then be connected in our Wednesday 'Higher LIFE' discipleship evening.

Could you donate £10, £100 or maybe even a £1k and sponsor an entire episode?

Here's what the school's are saying so far...

'We’re loving your videos! The first 3 episodes are great and we’re going to hopefully use them with all 1300 students in our school– thank you!'

 Jonny Baker, Assistant Headteacher and Chaplain at St Peter’s Church of England Aided Secondary School, Exeter.

‘I would love to use this resource with my students in Russia.’

Brookes Moscow International IB School, Russia

Thank you so much for reading this and if you are able to support us in prayer and or finance then THANKYOU!!!!

We can't do this without beautiful partners like you.
