Story
Members of staff from St Augustine's RC High School are pounding the pavements, each completing either a mile or 5k every day in June.
This is a gruelling challenge, both physically and mentally so any motivation in the form
of sponsorship would be very much appreciated.
The charity that you would be donating to is Circle. They engage with families who face exclusion due to social injustice, poverty and health inequalities to offer a range of whole family support services, promoting children’s healthy development and potential.
Any amount that you can offer will have a positive impact on young lives.
Circle's vision is for all children to be safe, happy and healthy within a stable family environment which supports them to achieve their potential. Circle works in some of the most deprived areas of Scotland who experience the negative effects of persistent poverty, social injustice and health inequalities. To help establish nurturing environments for children in these communities Circle works with the whole family to address the various challenges and problems they are experiencing. By supporting families to develop their parenting skills, improve their financial situation, address any issues with substance misuse and seek help with mental health issues Circle aims to give families, and the children in them, the best possible start to life that will empower them to reach their potential.
