JOB FAIR - June 2010
This year brings new and exciting challenges for the foundation. We need to continue to grow and it is extremely important for us to continue to facilitate, encourage and support training of young people with the ultimate goal of entering the world of employment. With this in mind, we will continue with our job fair in June and our summer courses in fashion design, film production and basic motor vehicle technology.
The job fair in June 2009 was held in the Ocean Music Venue where we had 23 companies taking part. We hope to increase that number this year, all the signs are this will be possible from the number of companies expressing an interest.
The summer courses will be even more exciting; stay posted for more news as things develop.

MENTORING PROGRAMME - January 2010
Our schools mentoring programme runs all year round and this year we are looking at making it available to more Hackney schools. In the past two years we have worked with a core group of schools with the view of developing the programme to suit the needs of the individual school, groups within the school or an individual within the school. Year on year we have looked at ways in which we can improve the content and delivery to ensure it is effective in changing the mind set of those who believe that violence is the way to go as a way of life. This programme has been successful in the schools we have been working with so far. This is based on the positive feedback we have had from such schools, some of whom are located in various London boroughs.
