02 Activities
What the charity does
We support care-experienced young people who were in local authority care in or live/study/work in the London Boroughs of Richmond, Kingston, and Hounslow. We offer practical and financial support to improve living conditions, achieve aspirations, and reduce feelings of isolation at a critical life stage; support that may not be available elsewhere. We also provide an annual Christmas Day event.
