Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Lorraine believed that to fail the most disadvantaged students in education is to condemn them to be at a disadvantage for the rest of their lives. 

SHINE believes that children should be given the best possible chances in education, no matter what their backgrounds or starting points.

They work alongside teachers and schools across the North of England to nurture great ideas that can help raise the attainment of children from disadvantaged backgrounds.

They also work in partnership with organisations and funders in the areas of greatest need within the North, kick-starting change that is locally led.
