This year as part of our fundraising plans, Stefanie, Adam and I are taking part in the NUTS challenge again, this is a 7km run with over 100 obstacles of muddy hell!
Stefanie and Alan are attempting to beat last years time and our Gap Apprentice Adam is tackling the course for the very first time!!
All money raised will go directly to working with young people in Islington, many of which are disadvantaged and/or living in poverty.
Prospex helped over 200 children and young people last year and we wish to help even more in 2016. Help us to make this a reality!
About Prospex:
Supporting disadvantaged young people aged 8 -19 in realising their full potential
We are a local community charity, dedicated to helping the young people within the Borough of Islington, working with young people who may be at risk of falling into a lifestyle of knife crime, drugs and violence, creating opportunities to realise and fulfil their own personal dreams, goals and aspirations. Our 3-stage service takes young people on their own Prospex journey via Street Teams, Community Youth Hubs and One2Ones, with a commitment to always putting young people first
Why the community needs us
Islington is one of the poorest boroughs with families in poverty and high crime rate. Our support goes beyond the young person, and includes local families and the wider community. Our work helps to reduce antisocial behaviour by getting young people involved in rejuvenation projects that create community cohesion.
Our impact on the community
Being a part Prospex inspires young people to see beyond their current circumstances, giving them the tools they will need to move forward and make decisions for themselves that will help them become valuable members of their communities.
