Make Someone’s Christmas with Kent Reliance has returned for the festive season!!
We want to spread some Christmas magic across Kent this December!
We asked our listeners to nominate people for an extra special treat this year.
We heard from Rebekah Webb about her friend Sian and son Jacob.
"Jacob is an 11-year-old boy whose two younger twin brothers Edward and Austin were both diagnosed with leukaemia at age 2, 6 months apart from each other.
The treatment for the two boys is intensive and will last 3 years, with regular visits to the hospital. Sometimes both twins get admitted to hospital at the same time, requiring mum and dad to be in hospital with them. This is very disruptive and distressing to big brother Jacob who unexpectedly gets picked up from school to stay with grandparents. He also spends lots of time in hospital with the twins at weekends.
He has been an absolute super star throughout all this, taking it in his stride and looking after his brothers as much as he can. For his birthday in September all he wanted was to "spend the day with mummy and daddy" - something that almost didn't happen due to hospital admission for one of the twins. He loves Harry Potter and a visit from Santa with gifts for him and the twins would be a great boost for the whole family."

Finished treatment in June 2018 and unfortunately found out in October cancer has come back and spread.
My husband Jason and daughters Chloe (11yrs) and Lilly (9yrs) have had to put up with so much over the last couple of years.
They have been such a support and what has kept me going.
My husband and daughters are amazing and I would love to give them something back to show them how much I appreciate them and love them. It would be great to give my children a magical special day out or weekend away to take their minds off cancer and treatment"

We want to spread some Christmas magic across Kent this December!
We asked our listeners to nominate people for an extra special treat this year.
We heard from Daniel Rowing about his friend's son Bailey;
"Bailey-Jae is one of 6 children to Roy and Emma Seaward.
In the early hours one November morning Roy collapsed in their home after having an epileptic seizure.
The family were awoken by this as Roy had fallen down the stairs.
Quick to react, 14-year-old Bailey (who had recently taken part in first aid training at his school in Rochester) realised that his father had stopped breathing; and whilst awaiting the emergency services proceeded to carry out CPR.
Bailey was calm and managed to get his father breathing again, and his actions in such difficult circumstances, at such a young age; has amazed us all.
Bailey's father Roy has just left Medway Hospital and is recovering which is great news. Myself ( his best mate ) and his family and friends would like to show Bailey how much his actions have inspired us all.
Bailey is a big arsenal fan so would like to give him a day to remember at the Emirates if possible. Many thanks"

We asked our listeners to nominate people for an extra special treat this year.
We heard from Kat Chidlow about her friend Debbie;
"Debbie is the most selfless person in the world.
Single mum of four who struggles to make ends meet, Debbie works two jobs to provide everything she can for her kids and still has the time to conduct community projects for the homeless and for the elderly as part of her charity community work with the school she works in.
The students absolutely love her and every time she has a new community initiative for them to get involved in, they flock to be a part of it. Debbie really is amazing and has had a very tough year, she still manages to keep it all together and organise Christmas gifts for the elderly wards at Medway Hospital, Carol singing to raise money for the hospital, stocking and charity appeals for caring hands and an elderly tea party at the school to spread festive spirit. We want to give some festive spirit back for Debbie and her family. It would be lovely if Debbie and her family could have a festive day out together so we can spread some cheer back to her."

We asked our listeners to nominate people for an extra special treat this year.
We heard from Charlotte Lappage about her mum Beatrice;
"Hello Rob/kmfm.
I would like to nominate my Mother.
She has been a nurse pretty much her whole life but now works at CCU as a Security Officer, although her job title should really be "second mum", because that's exactly what she is to hundreds of students each year.
A lot of them are in need of a mother figure with being away from home for the first time, so she takes it on. She even has the nickname "Mummy Kik".
So I would like to nominate her because through her line of work she has dealt with so so much though she doesn't show it, I know it has really affected her this year.
Throughout all of this she has never once complained! She somehow manages to stay strong through it all and for this, she is my biggest inspiration. So this nomination isn't just from me, but from the thousands of people she has helped and not once asked for anything in return! Anything you could do to lift her spirit this Chrismas would be amazing!!! Thank you"

We asked our listeners to nominate people for an extra special treat this year.
We heard from Emma Stevens about her son David and best friend Archie, she said
"My son (David age 7) has type 1 diabetes and gets poorly with his blood sugars quite a bit, Archie (age 7) is his best mate.
At school Archie keeps an eye on him so if he starts to get poorly he can tell the teacher fast, he keeps an eye on him the whole day and some times Davids' blood sugars are too high for him to go out to play or in for lunch and Archie will stay by his side even if it means missing playtime or having to go into lunch late.
He is such a great friend David would be lost without him. Archie doesn't have lots and even if he hasn't got the up to date computer, games or trainers he is always great full for what he does have. He melts my heart the way he is so caring towards my son that I think he should have a treat. It wouldn't matter what the treat was as he would be greatful for anything"

We asked our listeners to nominate people for an extra special treat this year.
We heard from Sarah Carter about her friend Kim Birkett, she said
" Kim is a 28-year-old mum of two young children, 4 months ago Kim was diagnosed with breast cancer. Since her diagnosis, she has been so strong.
She has raised a lot of money doing a brave the shave charity night, she raised above and beyond her target so was able to split the money between two charities and she is going on to do more charity events to raise more money.
Kim has been very strong and has coped so well with this devastating news and has made sure her children have not been affected. She is such a strong woman but I believe in the last two weeks she has been struggling and feeling a bit down.
I want to nominate Kim to show her she isn't on her own and that everyone is behind her. I think Kim would enjoy a day out with her children and family or a nice relaxing spa for after her treatment."

She has recently started a new school and is thriving even though it waa a massive step for her. Her dream is to be an author and she has already started writing a book which is already fantastic. Thing is her laptop has broken and with it being Christmas I can't afford to replace that as well as get gifts for her 5 siblings. I work full time and my husband is a carer and we struggle to make ends meet. I just know this could be the step to making her dream a reality and allow her to finish her book."

Project Kent 2018 with Kent Reliance is done! Check out the pictures and video at kmfm.co.uk!
kmfm have joined forces once again with Kent Reliance and their team of fabulous volunteers to add a bit of sparkle back into the community.
Over the last few weeks kmfm have been asking you to nominate those special, community projects that are in desperate need of some TLC. They had a huge response and some amazing nominations from all areas of the county but the final project has been chosen.
This year’s Project Kent 2018 is the Young Lives Foundation in Maidstone. Over the next few weeks, kmfm and Kent Reliance will be sending in a troop of volunteers to transform their ground floor rooms into a vibrant, and friendly space for children, teenagers, young adults and volunteers who use the facilities on a daily basis. The team are ready to sugar soap, filler, sand, paint, drill and to add a splash of colour to the charity’s headquarters.
The ‘Young Lives Foundation’ is an independent children’s charity who help vulnerable, and disadvantaged children, and young people across the county. The area that is getting the Project Kent VIP treatment is the ground floor of the charity’s Maidstone building which is where the children and young people do their homework, socialise and use it to chill out. It is also used for mentoring sessions and visitor meetings as well as an office workspace. The Project Kent team of volunteers will be creating a welcoming and warm vibe as opposed to the plain, office-looking environment that it gives off now.
Brewers Decorator Centres heard what Project Kent is doing for the Young Lives Foundation and wanted to get involved. They have provided the team with all of the different colours of paint, accessories and materials they need to make the transformation, including filler, gloss, sandpaper, sugar soap, rollers and paint brushes.
Brewers Decorator Centres have 11 branches across Kent and have been operating in the county since 1924. Click on their logo below to check out their store locations, expert decorating advice as well as their wide range of trade paints, decorating accessories, designer paints and wallpapers.
Neil Vickery, Mentoring an Befriending Manager, “It will make an amazing difference. A lot of young people don’t have access to the right sort of space at home to do things like their homework and to meet with their mentors and befrienders”
Day 4 - It's going to be really tight
20sec update: With the help of Garry and Laura the team powered through today to give us the best chance of completing the project for end of play Friday! There is a lot of touching up and cleaning up to do - wish us luck!
Project Kent 2018 with Kent Reliance is on!
kmfm have joined forces once again with Kent Reliance and their team of fabulous volunteers to add a bit of sparkle back into the community.
Over the last few weeks kmfm have been asking you to nominate those special, community projects that are in desperate need of some TLC. They had a huge response and some amazing nominations from all areas of the county but the final project has been chosen.
This year’s Project Kent 2018 is the Young Lives Foundation in Maidstone. Over the next few weeks, kmfm and Kent Reliance will be sending in a troop of volunteers to transform their ground floor rooms into a vibrant, and friendly space for children, teenagers, young adults and volunteers who use the facilities on a daily basis. The team are ready to sugar soap, filler, sand, paint, drill and to add a splash of colour to the charity’s headquarters.
The ‘Young Lives Foundation’ is an independent children’s charity who help vulnerable, and disadvantaged children, and young people across the county. The area that is getting the Project Kent VIP treatment is the ground floor of the charity’s Maidstone building which is where the children and young people do their homework, socialise and use it to chill out. It is also used for mentoring sessions and visitor meetings as well as an office workspace. The Project Kent team of volunteers will be creating a welcoming and warm vibe as opposed to the plain, office-looking environment that it gives off now.
Brewers Decorator Centres heard what Project Kent is doing for the Young Lives Foundation and wanted to get involved. They have provided the team with all of the different colours of paint, accessories and materials they need to make the transformation, including filler, gloss, sandpaper, sugar soap, rollers and paint brushes.
Brewers Decorator Centres have 11 branches across Kent and have been operating in the county since 1924. Click on their logo below to check out their store locations, expert decorating advice as well as their wide range of trade paints, decorating accessories, designer paints and wallpapers.
Neil Vickery, Mentoring an Befriending Manager, “It will make an amazing difference. A lot of young people don’t have access to the right sort of space at home to do things like their homework and to meet with their mentors and befrienders”
Day 3 - Can we make the deadline?
20sec update: Today the team needed to get the last of the prep work ready and start the painting of the edges! After a really busy day the guys have left and the paint is drying, hopefully in time for the big paint tomorrow!

The final night of Make Someone's Christmas with Kent Reliance and it was a special one! After receiving this email from mum Vicki about her daughter Maci, we knew we had to welcome her into the station! Day 10 and here is the nomination! "My daughter Maci is 7 years old and the most caring child I know. In the summer she spent her whole 6 week holidays fundraising for the Canterbury charity catching lives which helps the homeless. She managed to raise £770 and bought sleeping bags and made Christmas boxes for all of the clients. She has raised a further £218 which she will use to again buy sleeping bags and other essentials. She really is so giving and selfless. On her Christmas list this year she has simply put she wants a good life. I would love to be able to surprise her." So we did!
We've joined forces with Kent Reliance again to make Christmas 2017 for a number of people in Kent, the best yet.
Day 9 is a nomination for Shannon Foley from her Mum, Lorraine.
Shannon is having all her hair shaved of for charity. She is donating her hair to Little Princess Trust and raising money for two causes.
Half of the money will be going to Macmillan and the other half to a friend at school who is remission from cancer.
Shannon is only 11 years old and doing a very brave thing.
She loves Little Mix and I would love for them to send her a letter of "Well done" or something.

Day 8 comes from Nicola Martin, who nominated her Son, Woody.
I'm nominating my son, Woody Martin. He's a little boy and is 11 years old on 20th December.
He's just been amazing. We have a little girl, Winnie, who has Down's syndrome and is fighting cancer. She has had heart failure and liver failure. She is 7 years old.
Woody has been the best brother in the world. He has been up at 3 o'clock in the morning and he just loves her so much.
This little boy gets pushed aside because so much time gets taken up with hospital and doctors appointment and running around for Winnie. So I would like to nominate, Woody.
We've joined forces with Kent Reliance again to make Christmas 2017 for a number of people in Kent, the best yet.
Day 7 comes from Amy Brookman, who nominated her 8 year old Son, Albie.
Albie is just 8 years old. He is a very usual boy with a very special heart. Albie thinks in a completely unique way and is more empathetic than anyone I’ve ever met.
A couple of examples, Albie, for his birthday asked to sponsor a lion. He didn’t care for gifts he just wanted to help stop extinction.
Albie recently raised over £150 for children’s cancer charity after waking up saying, ‘I want to help make poorly children more comfortable.’ He worked hard selling merchandise and was very proud of himself.
But the thing that is most admirable about Albie is how he inspires others. His fundraising has now prompted family members to climb Ben Nevis for children with cancer charity. Albie just thinks beautiful thoughts and has a maturity that helps him act on these thoughts! I love that he even suggested if he was Prime Minister of the jungle (watching I’m A Celeb) that the first rule he would make is that everyone would get a turn in the comfy bed!
He really does make so many people happy and I think this treat could help nurture his desire to continue doing good for people who need it most.
For his treat could I suggest a mini break, he would love to see Father Christmas or Mickey Mouse. But in honesty Albie would be so pleased with any gesture; I know this because I know how much any act of kindness means to my angel Albie. Thank you.

Day 6 nomination comes from Yvonne Roberts, nominating Karen Morgan and here is why!
Karen is a tiny dynamo of a woman! Karen is coming up to 59 years old but she has the drive and energy of a 20 year old!
I have never met anyone with so much energy and so focused on everyone else except herself. Karen has a disabled son who is now 21 years old.
She has worked tirelessly to understand his difficulties by working in a school for disabled children and being as involved as she could with the disabled community.
She has worked wonders with her son and although now, she has very reluctantly found assisted living accommodation for him, she continues to be very involved with him each and every day.
She is an amazing mother, and she also looks after her mother which is almost a full-time job in itself since her Mum had a stroke earlier this year.
Karen is also a very active member of the Centre mind body spirit that I run. If I need any assistance from opening the doors if I can’t make it, to painting the walls and glossing the paintwork to offering her services as a Reiki healer for free (donations to the Centre) and rarely misses a week, unless it’s to help her mum or sun.
Karen has rescued two dogs and they are much loved and looked for.
In addition to all this, there are so many friends that owe her a debt of gratitude just for being there when they need help. Again, from taking them for hospital appointments, to dog sitting, to taking them in when in trouble, to just being on the end of the phone to listen to their problems. In all the time I have known her, which is about 5 years, I have rarely ever heard her say no to anyone. Despite running from one thing to another, she makes it work.
I know there are times, she is totally exhausted but even then she will still be there if you need her. What would I like you to do for her? I think she deserves a spa weekend to be pampered, a nice room, with nice food and some lovely treatments. I am sure, she would be so overwhelmed at something like this. She never ever asks for anything for herself, and I for one am privileged to call her a friend.
She has enhanced my life and her generosity to everyone and especially me, knows no bounds. I would love to see her get something back for her, and just for her. Please consider her as she is so deserving of something special. Thank you
After playing 15 times in 2017, it's time to lay £1000 Friday to bed for 2017....who is going to win the last one though?
We've joined forces with Kent Reliance again to make Christmas 2017 for a number of people in Kent, the best yet.
Day 5 from 12 year old, Tyler Barrett, who nominated his parents.
My Mum and Dad do everything for everyone and always go without themselves. I never see them treat themselves, and they didn’t even have a honeymoon when they married 5 years ago.
I am 12 years old and they have not once gone away without us on a holiday.
My Dad gives up his free time to help the Charing Sports and Social club with their field duties, as well as being a retained Fireman for the Village.
My mum works very hard. When she isn’t working she is looking after everyone, whether it’s me and my sister or her 3 sisters and their children.
She also helps some local businesses including the social club, cricket club with their social media for free.
This Christmas I know they are struggling a little bit, and I just wanted to make sure that they have a Christmas this year with my sister and me.
I just don’t want them to miss out because they sacrifice a lot for us and I want to pay them back in Kind.
Yours Hopefully, Tyler Barrett.

Day 4 is a nomination from Kirk Wyatt for his best friend, Mark Cordina and his daughter, Amelia.
I would like to nominate my best friend Mark Cordina and his 6 year old daughter Amelia.
3 months ago his wife and her mother got taken ill with an ear infection, but later that night she was pronounced dead due to meningitis.
Neither of them had a chance to say goodbye to his wife or to her mother.
Mark has had to quit his job to look after Amelia and deal with the enormous tasks his wife used to undertake while looking after Amelia while he worked.
Mark has done an amazing job continuing and I have helped him to do as much as I can along with other friends. We helped him raise the funds for Vikki's funeral, and although this short piece of information I give you contains the basics there is so much more to this story.
Vikki was also helping to run constant care in the community for the elderly, and I believe whole heatedly that they both deserve a treat.
We've joined forces with Kent Reliance again to make Christmas 2017 for a number of people in Kent, the best yet.
Day 3 is a nomination from Nicole King's Mum, Phillipa.
Nicole is my daughter, and she's 16 years old. Just before her 14th birthday Nicole was rushed into hospital because she lost the use of her legs.
We found out that Nicole had a condition called SUFE and she may not walk again as it was so severe.
A week later she had her first surgery which was a temporary measure as she needed extensive surgery on both hips which could not be carried out until they could find the right doctor.
She had the first surgery in the August and spent her 14th birthday in bed as she was unable to walk.
In September she had her second surgery which was one of two hip reconstruction surgeries which lasted eight hours.
She was very poorly after and needed a blood transfusion.
Getting home from this surgery, Nicole was unable to use her legs to even stand and spent the whole time in bed on in a wheelchair.
Finally she had the last surgery the second hip reconstruction surgery in January, and luckily she wasn't so poorly after this one and we were home in a few days.
She spent nearly a year in a wheelchair unable to walk.
Nicole now has a condition called AVN which means she needs hip replacements as the surgery unfortunately did not work.
Nicole was a happy beautiful girl who loved to dance go out with her friends play sports and this has all been taken away. She can No longer do any physical activities like running, jumping or dancing. She's unable to walk long distances without having to take a break and rest, but she doesn't let it get her down.
Through out this whole illness she has smiled laughed and kept us going as a family. Her attitude to life has changed and she makes the most of everything now - she is a true fighter, and is becoming a beautiful young lady.
She now calls her 12 inch scars her battle scars, where as before she would cry about them.
Nicole is now at college studying child care as she wants to work with special needs children. We thought this may not be possible as Nicole missed Year 10 at school due to the illness, but in Year 11 she battled through the pain and walking difficulties to catch up on work. She spent lunch breaks and after school catching up, and achieved her GCSE's.
I am so proud of my daughter and if it wasn't for her I think my family would have fallen apart.
If Nicole is chosen I would love her to have a day where she is treated like a princess. She loves make up, hair and clothes and I would love for her to get a makeover. I know this would mean so much to her. Thank you for reading.
We've joined forces with Kent Reliance again to make Christmas 2017 for a number of people in Kent, the best yet.
Day 2, and here was the nomination from Kirsty Cunningham about her mum.
Mum created the Christmas day lunch club 6 years ago. Through this, she organises and cooks Christmas dinner on Christmas day for elderly people who would be on their own. She organises for them to come to the village hall in Lyminge so they can enjoy Christmas day with lots of other people, great food and entertainment. I really think she deserves a special Christmas treat as she continues to do this on Christmas day to make sure other people have a fabulous day.
We've joined forces with Kent Reliance again to make Christmas 2017 for a number of people in Kent, the best yet.
Day 1, and here was the nomination from Beth Peal.
"Tracey leads Sittingbourne Scouts and she is out, all kinds of weather throughout the year supporting Scouting to happen in and around Sittingbourne. Over the last 2 years, Tracey has grown Scouting to have a much more 'team' feel and has brought everyone together which has been really good. She makes people feel that they 'can do' things and make a real difference to the lives of young people in the district. I would like kmfm and Kent Reliance to give Tracey some pampering - she does so much for everyone it would be awesome to help Tracey out herself first and be pampered.

kmfm has teamed up with Kent Reliance to launch ‘Project Kent’, an exciting hands-on community based project. Kent Reliance wants to help projects that are in need; whether it be a scout hut that needs repairing, a community garden that needs restoring or a soup kitchen that needs refurbishing, Kent Reliance want to get involved and help out. Kent Reliance are a bank who specialise in offering their customers savings accounts; with branches across the south east Kent Reliance ‘concentrates on offering award winning savings accounts’, providing their customers with the best deals. kmfm and Kent Reliance want to help make an impact within the local community. Both based within Kent, they want to give back to the community and what better way to do it than to have the public decide which projects are the most in need. Launched in the first week of July, nominations took place over 2 weeks with the process ending on Sunday 16 th July. During the week commencing Monday 17 th July the judging panel, consisting of the KM Media group, kmfm presenters and representatives from Kent Reliance, have gone through over 100 nominations to decipher who the finalist(s) were to be. The process involved visiting various nominations to view them first hand, take pictures and further inquire about their requirements and what works needed to be carried out. This allowed us to decipher which nominations we could realistically help leading to us deciding who our finalists were. After the publics’ overwhelming response to ‘Project Kent’ we are happy to announce that we have chosen our final projects!
Farthing Corner Community Centre, Rainham, ME8 8RZ Based in Rainham, this community centre was built over 30 years ago by local residents. The charity- run community centre welcomes over 100 children and adults each week, housing various clubs ranging from dance classes to Rainbows. Unfortunately, due to changing needs, clubs have left the premises and gone elsewhere affecting the centres usage capabilities. Over time the centre has fallen into disrepair and is desperately in need of a makeover. The kitchen, used as a prepping area, is dated and needs to be refurbished to allow the space to be used more efficiently; the bathroom is old and start to become damp, needing to be updated to make it fresh and vibrant. The changing facilities are also cramped and in need of some structural alteration to make it open-planned and more usable by those who attend the centre. Updating the community centre would encourage new groups to use the area as well as welcome back old groups into the space; membership would also increase meaning the centre would be used and enjoyed by more people.
Keep listening to kmfm and watching our social media pages to find out about our final projects and how they get on.

Beltinge Day Nursery, Herne Bay, CT6 6TA Based in Herne Bay this day nursery is charity-run, catering for children aged 2-5 years. The nursery is positioned on the same grounds as Reculver Church of England Primary School with most children from the nursery progressing into the primary school. The nursery is open during term time and is always attempting to raise money, such as through summer fetes, to provide the nursery with new toys. The day nursery’s garden is in desperate need of some TLC to make it safer and more engaging for the children; the flooring comprises of half Astroturf, which has become worn out, and half tiled slabs, which have started to become a tripping hazard. The nursery can cater for children with mobility issues meaning that a safe even floor will benefit them tremendously. Alongside the flooring the garden in general needs a makeover, in need of a lick of paint and some plants to make it feel more vibrant. The garden is in constant use by the children who attend the nursery, most of it being covered by a temporary roof making it accessible throughout the year, meaning its redecoration would be a massive benefit. The garden will aim to create a safer play environment as well as being engaging and stimulating in order to encourage learning.

On The Hit List with Glen Scott this week (20-24 November) between 7-10pm we met up with students from across Kent and with Kenward Trust shared stories and advice with them.
Kenward in the Community is a preventative, early intervention and outreach-focused substance misuse service. The roadshows visit schools across Kent to update young people, and answer any questions on the potential consequences of drug, substance and alcohol misuse, dependency and anti-social behaviour.
Go to thinkdifferentlykent.co.uk for more information.
Kenward Trust, founded in 1968, is a registered charity that helps men and women overcome alcohol and drug misuse. In excess of 10,000 have been helped with an average of 190-200 on an annual basis. We do this by delivering residential rehabilitation projects, and community and youth programmes, across Kent and Medway.
We are passionate about our work and helping individuals transform their lives by avoiding dependence upon drugs and alcohol. This is vital and essential for all of us living in society since substance abuse can affect anyone, anywhere and at any time of life.
Our Kenward in the Community programme is a preventative, early intervention and outreach-focused misuse service. It is delivered by a team of people from diverse social backgrounds who all have an excellent reputation in delivering youth services. They work together to deliver the Kenward Intervention Programme and community outreach work with hard to reach young people where drugs and alcohol can be causing anti-social behaviour. They are all fully DBS to work with young people and vulnerable adults
The biggest obstacle to reducing substance misuse is the inability to begin talking about the subject. In schools, workplaces and in general everyday conversation, ‘drink and drugs’ is a subject that is still not easy to discuss.
We are pleased to have been awarded a grant from the Colyer-Fergusson Charitable Trust to deliver Think Differently, our free drug and alcohol education and intervention sessions to secondary schools across Kent and Medway.
Using real life stories and experiences from individuals with previous drug and alcohol addictions, ex-offenders and current prison volunteers, Think Differently engages with young people raising awareness of the issues and potential consequences of drug and alcohol dependency. It helps young people to see these issues of crime and addiction and how it affects people. It outlines starkly that if they continue to follow the path they are on, then there will be multiple, negative consequences. Think Differently can help young people to make an informed choice due to contact and conversation with people who have been caught up in crime and addiction, because their lives have been affected by substance misuse.
Think Differently can be tailored to meet the individual needs of your school and/or particular year groups. It can be delivered to the whole school via an assembly, to specific year groups or to a small group of targeted individuals who may already be experimenting with drugs and alcohol or a risk of using drugs and alcohol. Our funding also enables us to offer an additional follow up day with a member of the Kenward in the Community team to offer further group/one to one work with individuals.
If you would like to discuss our Think Differently programme attending your school please contact, John Shanley, on 01622 814187 or email johns@kenwardtrust.org.uk
Any questions please do ask, and we look forward to supporting your school and students with education on drugs and alcohol, ASB and prison.
