Achievements and Performance

	SORP reference
Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole.	Para 1.20	September 2019 – end of February 2020 were exciting days for C4E. Using the support of Transforming Lives for Good, one to one mentoring was established in 5 local schools. This led to a request for literacy assistance from one school and volunteers were found to deliver this. Partnering with Care for the Family we were able to assist in the delivery of parenting courses in 6 schools. College work continued with much time spent in one to one sessions with students or in tutorials. Assemblies were delivered in both primary and secondary schools, sometimes with local volunteers but also using invited guests such as The Message. March bought lockdown and a need to reassess what the charity could do. Supporting and encouraging teaching staff who faced a tremendous strain became our focus with messages, letters, ideas and prayers. This was much appreciated. As the year drew to a close we began to explore what the charity could do should lockdown continue and it was decided to concentrate on the need for support both mentallyandphysicallythrough digitalprovision.
