GLF Schools

Why is there a need for the Foundation?

 

We want to provide more opportunities for all our children and young people, particularly those who are disadvantaged.

  • 1 in 4 children live in poverty in the UK, a situation which is worsening
  • These disadvantaged children have limited access to opportunities and experiences, therefore reducing their chances of developing essential skills
  • Due to Covid-19 it has been proven that those disadvantaged have found it more difficult to be active during the pandemic
  • The ­financial pressures on many families have been increased, meaning extra-curricular activities have had to be reduced
     

With your support GLF Schools’ Foundation can: 
 

  • Level the playing ­field for disadvantaged students in this challenging time
  • Positively impact mental health and well-being through access to enjoyable activities
  • Provide exposure for routes to success for all students to improve motivation and achieve within schools
  • Promote the importance of community engagement and cohesion through opportunities and partnerships

 

We aim to raise enough money to ensure that all students have the opportunity to experience the benefi­ts of being active no matter their socio-economic background.
