Hi all, so we got some free money from the government yesterday, but this should really have been spent on public services. In lieu of that I'd like to find a local kids charity to send it to instead. I already do Pecan foodbank but would like something else that can make a local difference. Any thoughts?

What a great idea.

School Home Support https://www.schoolhomesupport.org.uk/ work with children and their families to improve low attendance in schools and maximise education opportunities for all children. They would be grateful for any support that you could give.

Two options. 
 

Locally Dog Kennel Hill Adventure Playground

https://www.dkhap.org.uk/

or Little Lives take various donations to help disabled and disadvantaged children.

whoever you choose to donate too I’m sure it will be appreciated.

Very thoughtful of you

Westminster House Youth Club in Nunhead are brilliant

Agree with PeckhamNicola here. WHYC is an excellent local charity helping the most disadvantaged children in the area. We met Katie who runs it recently and she works so hard with her team to give children experiences and opportunities that would otherwise be completely out of reach.

    • If you like very good quality South Asian food then Babur in Brockley is offering a well priced, for what it is, Christmas day menu with sensitively priced reductions for a more limited children's menu. They also have a compelling wine list and their specialist cocktails are phenomenal. Not traditional Christmas fare, but then that might be an additional recommendation.

    • Dear families,   My name is Eleanor. I’ve worked in NHS Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services for the past eight years, and I’m about to begin an Infant Observation course in preparation for psychotherapy training. I’m looking for a baby to observe as part of this training.   The observation involves me visiting a baby and their parent for one hour a week over two years, with the aim of deepening my understanding of early emotional and developmental processes. Taking part is a generous contribution to the training of future child psychotherapists — ultimately supporting the mental health of children and families.   Both of my own children were observed as babies, which I found to be a really positive experience. Having an observer gently witness my babies’ development helped me notice their weekly changes in a new way, and I came to appreciate the calm, consistent presence of a trained observer. I was sad when the observations ended!   If you — or someone you know — is expecting a baby due before the end of February*, I would love to hear from you. You can contact me at +44 7977 910018 or [email protected].   Best wishes, Eleanor
    • I rarely iron, so my massive ironing board is just taking up unnecessary space. Does anyone have one of those little ones that you can use on an ordinary table?
