Thank you to everyone for your support in helping us raise £7,205 to improve accessibility and accommodation at The Old Pheasantry through the Big Give #ChristmasChallenge This money will help us to improve our newly acquired outdoor activity centre and offer a better experience for young people offering affordable residentials. Thank you!

Residentials offer young people an opportunity to develop independence, responsibility, and enhance social skills. This week we're raising money through the Big Give #ChristmasChallenge to give more young people the chance to enjoy a residential experience at The Old Pheasantry, especially for those who come from disadvantaged backgrounds. For this week until 10 December any donation you make via the Big Give link below will be doubled! https://lnkd.in/eudwyjHU Thank you for your support!

We want to make The Old Pheasantry more accessible for all young people.

For this week only until 10 December, any donation you make via the link below will be doubled - helping us to double our impact! https://lnkd.in/eudwyjHU Thank you for your support!
