We are a group of young people participating in the National Citizen Service, a programme for 16-18 year olds to try and have a positive impact on their local community.

Over the next 2 weeks we will be carrying out a social project at St Richard's Church and Community Centre in Hangleton, Brighton, which will involve renovating the centre and hosting an intergenerational event (on Friday 18th August) to celebrate the community as well as the work of NCS.

We would like to use this as an opportunity to raise funds for the centre, as it has been a part of Hangleton for almost a century and is an invaluable source of support for a huge array of people in the area. As well as fundraising for the centre, we are also looking for donations to the Sussex Heart Charity, as this is a charity that makes regular use of the centre and is a cause close to the hearts of the members of our group.

We will be splitting the donations to this page between the centre and the Sussex Heart Charity.
