New Education Project: PUSH

We are piloting a new project in January 2009.

The project, PUSH, will work with disadvantaged and at risk young people to prevent assault in their relationships and unwanted pregnancies. PUSH aims to reduce the amount of teenage pregnancies that are caused by abuse.

The pilot project will be delivered to 5 Pupil Referral Units and youth centres in Barnet, Brent and Camden initially.

If you are interested in further commisioning or funding this work, please get in touch by contacting Susie MacDonald at susie@tender.org.uk

National Lottery Awards Semi-finalist

Our Trust Project was a semi-finalist in the Big Lotteries Awards. We were shortlisted amongst 720 other candidates and competed for the Best Education Project.

"We are very pleased with the increasing recognition of the work we do with young people. Having worked in over 40 schools, Pupil Referral Units and youth centres this year, we’ve had enormous growth since delivering the Trust project to just 5 schools in 2004."

Susie McDonald, Education Manager
