Laura Bullivant is raising money for School of Hard Knocks
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
As a company we have chosen The School of Hard Knocks as our charity of the year, with the aim to raise £10,000 for them.
Anyone who knows me will know that this is totally out of my comfort zone.... if you told me there was cake, gin & David Beckham a mile away & that I just had to walk there to get it, I'd still be at home 3 hrs later watching something pointless on Netflix!!
The charity supports over 750 vulnerable adults and disadvantaged children each year using sport to tackle issues surrounding unemployment, behaviour, crime and health. They aim to:
• Improve physical & mental health, self-esteem and self-confidence
• Offer two distinct programmes targeting different groups and with different outcomes:
SOHK 18+: 8-week programme for unemployed adults (men and women over 18); desired outcome is gaining and maintaining employment SOHK for Schools: intervention for up to three years with secondary school children (typically 13-16 year olds), helping them complete mainstream education.
They are an amazing charity, I have met with them several times & the passion for what they do is truly unreal.... the least i can is this... right? Let's face it, not even I can raise £10k by eating cake at cake sales at work (I would give it a real good try though)
Plus what ever we raise is being matched by AFS, so your £10 is worth £20 & then with gift aid on top!!
