Where will your money go?

Outdoor play is a fun way to give young people the fresh air and exercise needed to keep them fit and healthy. Indoor play is not only great fun for the young people it also provides many opportunities for learning and helps them to focus when it is time to attend their more formal lessons.

Our St John’s Community Heroes campaign has a target of £5,000 which will help fund a range of engaging, fun and safe equipment and activities for the young people to enjoy.

Thank you to our community heroes:
