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.

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.

    • Disagree. Where are the police when you need them? People want a police presence, they want to feel reassured by seeing them do what the word suggests, policing, so go catch some bad guys, arrest, charge and get the CPS to prosecute with the evidence to enable this to happen. Stabbing and shootings are so common place they no longer even get reported in the public domain. How many crimes don't get solved? Rather case closed and forgotten. The number of low to high level crimes which remain unsolved is staggering.  The criminal fraternity know this, they know they won't get caught so they just carry on.  Biggest crimes which affect most people, probably are phone and car theft, both are prolific and what do the police do, diddly squat. zilch, nothing, provide a crime reference number and the case is closed. Not good enough, not by a country mile.   Met Engage? I don't think so.
    • https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/violent-crime-plunges-london-homicide-rate-b1247078.html Worth doing a little checking before making assumptions about violent crimes. Recent data suggests a drop in violent crime. Gang violence will make a significant contribution to the numbers. You are unlikely to be attacked by a stranger   
    • Unfortunately there are plenty of shops which don't care and will sell vapes, alcohol and weed to minors, I'm sure they won't care about selling them fireworks. Or the kids nick them.
    • It’s getting a bit annoying. We’ve a nervous dog who trembles when they go off. I know to expect it around Halloween and Diwali but it seems to be happening more through the year.
