During last week’s celebration assembly we were honoured to be joined by Chris Silby one of the founders of The Ollie Foundation and Bob Fergson, Chair of St Albans & Harpenden local committee who attended on behalf of Cancer Research UK.

We were delighted to present both charities with a cheque of the money raised during our house charity fortnight. We raised a total of £622.95.

OLLIE is a charity dedicated to delivering suicide awareness, intervention and prevention training by empowering professionals and young adults in their own communities to lead suicide prevention activities. OLLIE wants to create a society where no one feels that suicide is their only option.

Cancer Research UK (CRUK) is the world’s largest independent cancer research organisation. Cancer Research UK funds and conducts life-saving research into various types of cancer. It also provides information, support and advice for people affected by cancer, and their families.

We would like to thank everyone from the KWS community who contributed and we look forward to working more closely with both charities.
