OUR FUNDERS AND SUPPORTERS
Reaching higher allows, the young people to feel valued. Allows the young people to be heard and I think this is very important. From their mentoring schemes to their workshops to their lit programs everything they do with the young people in my community really makes a difference. It helps to build their confidence And their ability to interact not just with their peers, but we’ve adults. I have had three of my own children go through the reaching higher scheme, now they are too old and I’ve invited countless of family member's. I wish every London Borough could have a reaching higher like we do in Croydon. I think they’re amazing."
