Back in November, our Breakfast Club was featured as part of the BBC Children In Need fundraising programme. Here is the appeal film that they made:
As a result of the film, we’ve had loads of interest in the club. Many, many people have commented that they saw us on TV and four individuals have already come forward to volunteer at the club. Our local B&Q branch came along and donated an 8′ Christmas tree complete with decorations, we’ve had an article in the local paper and a feature being written for a magazine, and there’s now some bigger discussions occurring around how the club can develop in the future.
We couldn’t have bought this kind of publicity, but it’s been an exciting journey so far. Most importantly we hope it will enable us to continue supporting the brilliant children who are referred to the club, and allow us to help even more of them!
