Please donate to them as they help many kids in London,

UK, and in the World for the Year of the Bus – London

KIDS COMPANY LONDON

 

Kids Company operates through four centres and a therapy house in London.

We also offer therapeutic and social work services in over 40 schools.

Our unique multidisciplinary approach combines health, housing, emotional wellbeing, mental health, arts, sports, youth justice, education and employment. These interventions are designed to strengthen, supplement or substitute the child’s parenting experience.

Our aim is to first stabilize each young person by meeting their practical needs, before helping them to address emotional and behavioural difficulties. Once the young person has achieved some sense of stability and calm, we help them to identify talents and interests and so develop aspirations for the future.

 

 

Transaid

Transaid is an international development charity. We identify, champion, implement and share local transport solutions to improve access to basic services and economic opportunity for people in Africa and in developing countries. Transaid was founded by Save the Children and The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport and our Patron is HRH The Princess Royal. 

 

London Transport Museum

 

London Transport Museum is a Museum of urban transport which delivers important educational and heritage preservation charitable work across Greater London.
