We are pleased to announce that we have recently offered grants to two new partners:

We look forward to
​working with our new charities
in 2022.

TFCF are pleased to be supporting Grow Gardeners. A scheme offering paid work experience and training for young people in Sheffield who are at risk of long-term unemployment.
Under the supervision of a gardening team leader, each young person builds a range of gardening knowledge, improving their employability and soft skills.
Each week all of the teams come together for a Farm Day. A day of training and tasks to experience working in different teams and stretch the young person’s range of skills in plant care.
Grow’s aim across all of their programmes is to promote wellbeing, develop employability and reduce isolation in the young people they work with.

The Duke of Edinburgh Award is a challenge for any young person. For those with hearing loss it becomes doubly difficult so it is with great pleasure that we will be funding Phoenix, based in Stevenage Hertfordshire, with their ambitious plan to guide a group of young people in their quest to achieve their Bronze standard during the course of 2022.

Lads Need Dads

TFCF are pleased to be supporting Lads Need Dads for three years until
​April 2024.

​Why Lads Need Dads
Lads Need Dads believe prevention is crucial in reducing the growing number of boys coming from fatherless homes each year who under achieve at school, struggle with their mental health, are excluded from school or engage in offending behaviour.
At Lads Need Dads we believe in early intervention and in walking alongside boys during the critical years of 11-15. We provide a team of vetted and specialist trained mentors who work in group and long-term.
We provide opportunities for the boys to be stretched both mentally and physically by engaging with the outdoors and teach them practical life-skills which they get the opportunity to practice by volunteering in the community. We provide opportunities to be inspired by men from the community and to train as leaders and peer mentors

Youth Café Cornwall

TFCF are excited to be supporting
​Youth Café Cornwall 
with their new project
​"Cooking for Life".
Pop Up Supper Clubs for young people.
