Story

The Gifted started in 2013. We visit secondary schools across Hertfordshire, Essex and London and work with as many as 40 girls and young women aged 11-18. Some of these girls are at risk of exclusion, while others are misunderstood. These students can be described as marginalised, but often we find their lives are complicated and they have experienced a degree of trauma. It is the type of life events that their friends would not necessarily know about and may come with an element of shame or embarrassment. It is often their secret that they're trying to hide, while wanting to appear normal and focused on what they imagine is most important. Our projects are less about the trauma, focusing instead on the amazing and positive aspects of their lives and future that make them unique. The best part is that we are making a positive impact. With £2500 we can reach and engage 100 more girls online, in the community and in school settings.
