Story

Please support our intrepid volunteers who will be abseiling off Gateway House in the heart of De Montfort University campus on Tuesday 17 November.

Your support will make it possible for our project Tiny Sparks to make a difference to a group of deprived school children living in east and west Leicester.  Two artists will work with the toddlers to develop vital language skills before they start nursery.  Without this help these children will start school well behind their peers before they even begin.

We are able to do this event thanks to our much valued partnership with De Montfort University and Students Union.
