'United we can raise generation of safe and secure young people'

We are working with schools according to their needs, going into the very heart and core of school life. We are keeping close to the need presented to us; the need for a presence in the playground, for warmth, for chatter, for building authentic consistent relationships, being a non anxious presence and facilitating safety at bus stops. Our heart is to nurture simple connections but with broader and deeper meaning.

How are we going to do this?

We are connecting and partnering with some extraordinary people and charities. We want to recruit more mentors for example, to bring people together for a greater reach of faith work in schools. Charities such as LiNX have been doing this rich work for many years, therefore partnering with them gives strong roots to the Schools Support network.

The team at Nova and Love Enterprises lead the way with their bold, courageous and dynamic detached youth work, sports and incarnational missional communities; encouraging and providing safe spaces and a non judgemental, non anxious approach and presence to young people. We stand with them to encourage and equip others to join in.

And ICE Torbay, a deep well of resources, experience and engagement. Delivering education and knowledge into the hearts of our little ones in primary schools. We thank God for their presence and the Gospel truth they take into schools. Bringing faith to Life.

For such a time as this we want to build upon strong foundations, to fill fresh wine skins, to renew ancient wells, and to take new ground. These phrases are empty words unless we are willing to press into vision, to work together and encourage others to get involved; to give their time, wisdom, care, and their support to our schools.

We are committed to breaking down cultural, generational, racial and socioeconomic barriers.

United, we can raise a generation of safe and secure young people through our schools.
