🚲 13 new mountain bikes for Woodrow!

We’re delighted to have received a donation of 13 mountain bikes from Thales and O3e, which will be put to great use during our residentials!

Nicky & Nick had the pleasure of visiting o3elements for a short presentation, before getting stuck in and helping to build the bikes.

These bikes will help us create even more exciting outdoor adventures and unforgettable experiences for the young people who visit us. 🌿

A huge thank you to Thales UK Ltd and o3elements for your generosity and support! ☺️

It was a privilege for our Head of Centre, Asti, and Pauline, CEO of London Youth, to attend the Unsung Heroes Garden Party at Penn House, graciously hosted by Buckinghamshire Lieutenancy, The Countess Howe.

The event was a wonderful celebration of the remarkable individuals who make a lasting difference within their communities. It was an excellent opportunity to meet inspiring people, strengthen existing relationships and build new connections across the local community. We were also delighted to catch up with Roger Jefcoate CBE.

Our sincere thanks to The Countess Howe and The Clare Foundation for hosting such a fantastic event and for bringing together so many inspiring individuals to recognise and celebrate their invaluable contributions.
