Rather than bombard everyone stright away with detailed information on every project we are visiting, we thought a gentle introduction and overview of the types of visits we are going to make would perhaps be better.
Every project that is to be visited throughout the week is in some way contributing or benefiting their local community.
"I firmly believe that the well-being of any community begins with local people, and especially with our local voluntary groups and charitable organisations. Their contribution can be easily overlooked in a world where national media dominates." - Mrs Carolyn Cumming
As well as all of our projects being local and community based, I have chosen to direct my attention towards young children and their families, as this is an area that as High Sheriff, I would like to promote.
In the following weeks we will be giving you lots more information on each individual project but for the mean time, here is a list of examples.
- Youth Clubs
- Riding schools for children with challenging backgrounds and disabilties
- Childrens Centres
- Community Shops
- Local Schools
- Projects who help their local communities through the arts
DO YOUR BIT AND DONATE!
