Shoutout to the incredible Kent Fire and Rescue crew!
From engaging families in safety initiatives to leading impactful fundraising efforts, the crew at Kent Thameside fire station have always been at the heart of the Gravesham community, helping make a real difference. This week they have been out collecting in the town, supporting the Elliott Holmes Memorial Fund helping us raise the vital funds we need, to keep us supporting our young people in 2025.
We have had 170 young people refer in 2024 with over 50 young people currently in counselling. This has all been made possible with the huge community effort we have seen throughout 2024. Thank you to all who have been part of this, together we have all made a difference, bucking the UK trend and making a huge impact locally. A special mention to all the Community Group admins who have supported us, publishing our news throughout the year and of course to our amazing counsellors, who without their support none of this would be possible.
Have a lovely Christmas.
