Doubleyourdonationsnow.Twicetheimpactforoneweek only!
From midday today (Tuesday, 27th November) every donation that we receive will be matched for 7 days. So, for every £1 you donate, we will receive £2.
We’re taking part in the UK’s largest match-funding campaign, the Big Give Christmas Challenge 2018! This means that every donation that we receive through our project page on the Big Give website will now be doubled, up until 12pm on Tuesday, 4th December 2018.
What are we raising money for?
We are aiming to raise £42,500 to deliver a tailored version of our life coaching programme, Hero’s Journey, for young black men in prisons across London.
We know from The Lammy Review and recent prison service research that young black men in prison are over-represented, but few services are tailored to their needs. As recently requested by prison governors, we will co-design a new Hero’s Journey workshop with and for black and dual-heritage men aged 15 to 25 years old.

We already know what a difference Hero’s Journey makes to young people in prison. Our latest evaluation results show it has reduced young people’s reoffending by one-third, reduced violent behaviour and improved their wellbeing, decision-making, empathy, resilience and confidence.
