Transformational experiences for 15–17-year-olds, designed to embolden them by giving the buzz of being an adult (without all the responsibilities).

We are very grateful and humbled by the generosity and kindness shown by amazing people, organisations and trusts who support us.

All funds raised will be used to provide valuable counselling and mentoring support for children and young people aged 11-17 in Buckinghamshire and Milton Keynes.
