The SAFE Foundation, in conjuction with Communities First East Cardiff, Forging Links, The Craig Bellamy Foundation and just about every other charity in the whole world, are starting a new project! Its flippin’ amazing, too!

We’re taking 10 young people who are not in employment, education or training to Sierra Leone in December so that they can train a whole lotta Sierra Leone kids in life skills, HIV/AIDS education, football skills and nutrition.

Young people will come from East Cardiff and be trained for six weeks prior to leaving, and while they are there, they will be able to gain plenty of skills themselves, as well as earn themselves a FAW (Football Association of Wales) certificate to help them get motivated, and help them get jobs or onto training courses.

There are still some places left to go, so if you’re between 16 and 24, in East Cardiff and think you want an adventure, get in touch! info@thesafefoundation.co.uk

Thank you to all those who decked themselves out in 1920’s style and attended the SAFE Foundation annual ball yesterday, we had an amazing time, and it seems you all did too!

Everything went off without a hitch, thanks to Hannah’s organisation skills, and although we haven’t tallied up the final amounts, we’re estimating we raised about £2000 for our projects in Ghana, Uganda, Sierra Leone and India.

Thank you to Maureen Owor, from TOCIDA, our newest charity partners, who attended and danced the night away with the rest of us!
