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	The charity has funded training for teachers from five universities (2 lecturers per university) and seven schools (1 teacher per school) to receive FAMH training to roll out mental health awareness training to students. By providing initial funding to these institutions, it has resulted in more than 60 teachers receiving this important training meaning that more students are able to learn about the importance of knowing how to spot the signs of mental health struggles in their peer groups. The International Development work of R world is being organised in light of the restrictions that Covid has brought to travelling. It is hoped that a Master’s student from Nottingham University will be funded to carry out research for their dissertation in 2022. The Robbie Curtis memorial prize for best dissertation in human geography at Nottingham University was awarded for the first time in 2021.
