generalIn October, Gabriel Cusato, a representative from the Foundation, met with Debbie King (Chief Executive), Paul Whitmore (Director), and Mike Allott (Community Coordinator) at Plus You Limited's Highpoint Centre in Southampton.
Plus You Limited is a charitable organisation dedicated to supporting the community of Thornhill, with a primary aim of driving local regeneration by helping people to help themselves. They value the voices of residents and build successful relationships with other organisations to deliver impactful community projects.
The project we are supporting collaborates with Family Support Workers from two local primary schools to reward disadvantaged children who have demonstrated exceptional achievements, whether through excellent school attendance, outstanding work, or exemplary behaviour. As a reward, these students will receive a Family Ticket to the Christmas Pantomime at the Mayflower Theatre in Southampton.
The project aims to encourage hard work and positive behaviour among students by providing recognition for their efforts. Additionally, this project will allow families to enjoy quality time together outside the home, developing social connections and reducing isolation for children and families who may not frequently interact with others.
