 We were grateful to receive a grant of £685
awarded from the Jerome Booth Charitable Fund, which is
administered by Essex Community Foundation.
This was to replace our 2 very old computers.
A grant awarded to fund a volunteer project
Learning, Growing, Achieving from September 2010 to the
beginning of April 2011.
This is an exciting project to enable volunteers to learn
new skills, gain confidence and be supported in presenting
workshops to pupils in local primary schools and years 7 and
8 at secondary school.

We are very grateful to
The
East of England Cooperative Society for providing us
with office space at their Resource Centre premises at
Greenstead.
We could not run efficiently without our
volunteers who help manage our Resource Library, help with
administration, workshop preparation and many other clerical
tasks. If you would like to help please contact us.
