John and Patsy were invited to the Thatcham Mayor making ceremony on Sunday.

Ellen Crumbly was voted in as the Mayor for a second year. Each year the Mayor chooses two charities as her charities for the year. All fund raising events she attends over the year and the money raised at these events is shared between her two charities at the end of the year.

We are very lucky and happy to say that Ellen has chosen our charity to be one of her charities of this year....

Patsy and John, as well as our patron Gill, received an award from James Puxley, the Lord Lieutenant of Berkshire, last week to commemorate the achievement in being nominated for the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service 2016. What an honour again to be nominated. We are so pleased that Young People and Children First and our wonderful bunch of volunteers are recognised; and we are keeping our fingers and toes tightly crossed until 2nd June (The Queen’s birthday) when the winner of the award gets announced.

Please join us in keeping everything crossed. We appreciate all your support.
