The Covid-19 crisis has forced us to turn to our community for vital support, in a way we've never needed to before.
The generosity of people and organisations in our community has helped Coram's Fields to be resilient through the pandemic so far. By donating, fundraising and helping us to spread the word about our Emergency Appeal you have helped raised crucial emergency funding to help keep our park, playgrounds and services open for those who rely on us most. Thank you.
Our community has done so much already. But the emergency continues.
Whilst we are so proud to remain open, we face the huge ongoing costs of running our seven-acre site without being able to raise essential funds due to the national restrictions. Every day, we miss out on around £1,500 in income from not being able to hire our football pitches and our halls. Our pitches are our single biggest source of income, and this is a critical loss.
By donating however much you can afford, you are enabling us to continue to be here for your local community. Helping Coram's Fields means helping your local community get through these uncertain and frightening times, ensuring we have essential resources and facilities into the future.
As we continue to remain open, our open green space, play areas and services will continue to be a lifeline for the children, young people and families who need us.
Through this lockdown, families across our community face job losses, increasing financial pressures and staying at home in overcrowded accommodation. Hardships are exacerbated by home-schooling, without space or resources to do so. Our services teams have been going above and beyond to help. We have been offering one to one support to families, from homework help to family fitness sessions to delivering activity packs, we have been here every step of the way.
Local children and young people battle worsening mental and physical health and uncertain futures. Those at risk before the pandemic are at even greater risk now without the structure that school and our onsite services provide. Our Youth and Sports teams have ensured local young people, many of whom live in poverty, are not in education or employment, and are at risk of engagement in crime, are seen, supported, and safeguarded through this crisis.
A place that teaches freedom to children and is a refuge for their carers. I would not have survived bringing two kids up in a tiny flat in King's Cross without it.
