Story

On Friday 19th June, Leicester Grammar School pupils and staff will be talking part in a House Walk to raise funds for charity. 

One of our two chosen charities is Open Hands, Leicester. Their strap line is ‘Compassion in Action’ as they provide food, clothing, furniture, skills training, mentoring, advice and a listening ear to the most disadvantaged in our local community. The majority of its services are run out of its Compassion Centre in Highfields (Leicester), but they also run an OFSTED approved preschool in two areas of the city and a thriving and profitable subsidiary company, ‘6 Degrees Coffee House’, in order to support the charity’s good work.

Please do take part and make a donation. Our goal is to raise £500.
