RNIB
Our young people act as the volunteers for the RNIB, taking their “Sooty” mascot money boxes to local venues such as cafes and shops, asking the community to help raise money for this charity.
They would then count and bank the money collected empowering the young person, helping them gain practical, social and key skills and provide much needed support to make a difference in their community and to the charity as a whole. The young people have taken pride in this project, learning about the charity and the good work it carries out for blind and partially sighted people and how charities rely on the support of communities and individuals to make a difference.
