Story

Thank you so much for supporting the friends of Dulwich Prep Cranbrook Virtual Christmas Fair.  

Due to the current restrictions in place, whilst we are not able to organise a face to face Christmas Fair, we want to support the wonderful exhibitors and local businesses in the run up to Christmas through a virtual Christmas Fair.  

The Fair has always been a popular annual event in the School calendar for Christmas shopping, and whilst in a different format we want to make sure that we run a fair this year too.  We are supporting Porchlight, a local charity chosen by the families at Dulwich Prep Cranbrook.  

Thank you for your support.

Porchlight is Kent’s largest charity for homeless and vulnerable people. It helps people who are homeless to escape the streets and rebuild their lives. Last year, Porchlight supported more than 650 people who were sleeping rough in Kent. It also prevents homelessness by giving people support for housing issues and mental health problems they are facing. Last year, Porchlight helped 1,400 people who were at risk of losing their home.

"If it weren’t for Porchlight, I don’t think I’d be around today. They gave me a safe place to call home and the help I needed to make a new start. Porchlight and its supporters helped save my life." - Audrey

But demand for Porchlight’s help is increasing due to the economic and emotional effects of coronavirus. Job losses are leaving people unable to pay rent and facing eviction.Employment uncertainty and worries about housing, heating and food are also having devastating effects on people’s mental health. Nobody should have to face these issues alone. By choosing to support Porchlight, you can ensure they have don’t have to.
