"We were thinking about other people's experiences in life - 'does everyone have the chance to eat healthy food?'

As a school we knew through the Salvation Army that people in crisis are not in the same fortunate situation as ourselves. We saw this as our chance to

…..MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

A Sixth Form team worked with the whole school to each collect something small - toothpaste, pasta, tins of soup, cans of beans, soap, shower gel etc for people who may be in crisis……

Something Small x Many people = Something BIG!

By putting this motto into practise, together we made a BIG DIFFERENCE. Now our donations increase every time we do our termly appeal. We have managed to fill a whole car full of groceries and supplies for people in crisis.

We have made a promise that we will continue to work alongside this charity because everyone deserves a chance at life. All we want is to give them the right push in the right direction, in this case by providing food and essentials.

Our next collection in the summer will gather groceries and supplies, bed linen and towels. Working alongside the Salvation Army has given us a different perspective - and really with a bit of hard work and the will to succeed - it's not difficult!

Together WE MAKE A DIFFERENCE".

How about getting your school involved in similar activity? Contact you local Salvation Army branch and see if they need their emergency food stocks refilling. Then get your whole school involved in collecting items.

Register your project with us so we can send you certificates for the children, T shirts, posters, balloon and stickers.
