We work with the most disadvantaged to inspire lives and change futures

Story

This year I’m running for a local charity - Child Action North West (CANW). They are really an incredible charity who help vulnerable children and young adults and give them the best chance. I have taken the below information from their website, but please have a look if you want to find out more.

INSPIRING LIVES AND CHANGING FUTURES

It’s what we’ve been doing since 1886, in one form or another!

We passionately believe that every child and young person has the right to achieve their full potential, whatever their background or circumstances – and, as a result, we work with over 6000 children, young people and families in the North West of England every year.  We work in the heart of communities – often in partnership with other organisations – to end family cycles of deprivation, drug and alcohol abuse, lack of self-esteem, youth crime, teenage pregnancies and broken families.

As a result, we help to strengthen individuals, families and communities so that children and young people can lead healthy and meaningful lives, with the opportunity to succeed in school, to grow up to enjoy healthy relationships, to have access to training and employment opportunities and to be successful in the world of work.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
