We are excited to welcome Michael Petiafo to our team as our new Lead Youth Worker, who brings a wealth of experience in supporting young people to thrive and reach their full potential. Please do come in and say hello! After a busy Summer Holiday, we now have our regular participants attending the weekly boxing and youth club sessions, which have been as busy as ever! We were all celebrating on 6th September when we watched participant, Marcus Perrineau Daley win a silver medal in the 100-metre wheelchair sprint, in his first ever Paralympics (being pipped at the post by the current world record holder). Marcus first came to Carney’s a few months after breaking his back in a motorbike accident. He immediately excelled in boxing and achieved his personal training qualification with us.

Thank you! To everyone who donated and shared our Big Give Campaign, thank you. Our target was the biggest we’ve ever had and yet with your support we did it! We raised a total of £31,520 plus £3,802.50 in Gift Aid! Your support will mean that young people, many of whom have faced huge challenges growing up, will be given the support of a key worker who will work alongside them to help them achieve their goals. For our young people this may mean getting into work or education or to get to a good place with their mental and physical health. Because of your donations we can see transformative change in the lives of our young people. From everyone at Carney’s Community, thank you.

Dear Community, Announcement: Big Give Campaign Not only has Carney’s Community been selected again to participate in the Big Give Champions for Children Campaign, but our fundraising target is also the biggest we’ve ever had! If you’ve been following our newsletters and seen a copy of our impact report available here: https://carneyscommunity.org/impact-report/ then you’ll know we’ve been developing our key work.

Can you help? Ride London is Sunday 26th May up and five cyclists are taking on the 60-mile challenge to raise money for Carney’s Community. This includes our own COO, Hannah Tulloch, and Administrator, Aaron Grew. When asked why she’s cycling Hannah said: “In June 2023 I started working for Carney’s Community. I have been so incredibly impressed by the work done here, the commitment of staff to support young people going through incredible challenges and the inspiration of those that have turned their lives around and are making a positive difference in the world. Carney’s is all about the long term, supporting young people through boxing, youth activities, bike workshops, skills training and a lot of intensive mentoring and one to one support. If cycling 60 miles will help reach that aim, then I think I can manage the muscle aches after!” They’re aiming to raise an amazing £5,000 and we […]
