Cash for Kids you are the best!

Posted 29th September 2023

One of our community member's has struggled with a medical condition and has been on a waiting list for almost a year, with another year to wait before getting the support they need. Although they have tried to take it in their stride, the impact of their condition has had a massive impact on them.

So, we applied to Cash for Kids for a grant, unsure if this was something they would fund.

Cash for Kids committee has only gone and said yes to our young person's application. YOU BEAUTY!!!!!

What does this mean for our community member? They will be on the journey to go back to their positive outlooking self with confidence, their mental health will improve and they will be able to go about their day, without the constant reminder of their medical condition.

THANK YOU CASH FOR KIDS, YOU HAVE MADE OUR WEEKEND!!!!!!!

CYPNow - NHP Supports Care Leaver Apprentices

The National House Project (NHP) has been hosting apprentices since 2021. The organisation, which was incorporated as a charity in 2018, works with local authorities that have set up their own Local House Project (LHP), a scheme that helps young people leave care in a planned and supported way. Young people, both in and leaving care, are brought together in groups to create their first homes, learn new skills and join a long-term community of support that can develop pathways into education, employment and training. With 17 LHPs established across England, involving more than 700 young people, around half of these local projects provide apprenticeships as part of their offer, explains Sue Hammersley, director of NHP. There have been three young people so far that have undertaken an apprenticeship with NHP. Hammersley says all apprenticeships offered at NHP and across the LHPs are business administrative roles, although one project in Oxford has offered a participation apprenticeship after linking in with a local college.
