Story
Last year we were raising money to support the website for the exhibition. "The Elephant in the Room". This has now been built. www.theelephantintheroom.co.uk
I am running the Hampton Court Half Marathon on 19 March to raise much needed funds.
The take up has been overwhelming over 3000 young people from primary school age up to 18 across diocese of Southwark in collaboration with Central St Martin "Feelings on the outside". This event is supported by Professor Rosalind George (Educationalist) and Professor Goodman (Criminology and Sociology) and representatives from children in action.
The exhibition costs are quite high for this small charity therefore your help would be greatly appreciated.
We are hoping this event will attract core funding so that our projects can be project managed more efficiently and a sustainable fund raising strategy may be achieved.
Thank you so much for your kind generosity.

The feed back from schools and impact on individual pupils and artists that took part has been unbelievable. Laverne

7 years agoCompleted the Hampton Court Half Marathon in 2 hours 29 not a brilliant time but happy given my lack of training. We have also received sponsorship for drinks on launch night and are busy trying to raise funds for some merchandising. Will keep you posted. Thank you so much for your support.
